The Stone Guest Sculpture
Ovocn & yacute trh 1, 110 00 Praha 1, Czech Republic
Description:
The amazing statue “Stone Guest” is located in the Czech city of Prague. An unusual gatekeeper waits for his visitors at the walls of the Estates Theatre. The statue is made of bronze and is a thoughtfully sitting on a pedestal figure in a cloak, but instead of a face, the sculpture has a void. The statue is more sympathy and does not converge with the stereotype of a formidable stone statue. The dimensions of the "Stone Guest" similar to human ones create a special effect and awaken the imagination. This popular sculpture is no exception, almost all Prague statues are made in sizes close to human parameters.
