"Im Büsten und Skulpturenfundus lagern inzwischen hunderte Werke aller Stile und Epochen. Bei den Stukkateuren und Kunststofftechnikern entstehen dagegen kunstfertige, feinteilige Reliefs, Kapitelle, Ornamente und Stuck aber auch Wandimitationen und -effekte wie Imitationen von wehrhaften Burgen und mondänen Metropolen."
