  2. Looks like the statues from the 50s you can find here as well.

  3. The statue's colouring: is it by design? Very interesting.

  4. Thanks for your comments.

    Julie: After you posted your comment, I added another view so that you can see how emaciated he is.

    Joan Elizabeth: I thought it was strikingly realistic, too.

    joo: I would have thought that the statues in communist Poland would have been a bit more heroic -- like the French one I posted (2009-06-25).

    Martina: I have no idea whether the colouring is intentional, but, you are right, it does add to the sculpture.

    ruma2008: Yes, you almost want to say hello.

  5. He looks rather austere, as though he's thinking.
    Thank you for your good wishes.
    Cheers.
