The sculpture you are referring to is likely the Moresca Dancer, a wooden sculpture that is part of the famous Glockenspiel in the tower of the Neues Rathaus (New Town Hall) in Munich, Germany. The Glockenspiel is a popular tourist attraction that features two levels of life-sized figures that perform twice daily.
The Moresca Dancer is one of the figures on the lower level, and is a representation of a traditional German Renaissance dance known as the Moresca. The dance was popular in the 16th century and featured dancers wearing elaborate costumes and masks.
The Moresca Dancer sculpture was created by German sculptor Erasmus Grasser in the late 15th century. Grasser was a prominent sculptor in Munich during the Renaissance period, and his work can be seen throughout the city.
The Glockenspiel and its figures were damaged during World War II, but were restored in the 1950s. Today, the Glockenspiel is one of the most famous landmarks in Munich and is visited by millions of tourists each year.
