Parasolniki, Bronze dwarf statue in Plac Grunwaldzki, Wrocław, Poland.

Two small bronze figures stand holding umbrellas in their hands, forming part of the extensive collection of dwarf sculptures throughout Wrocław.

The Parasolniki statues, installed in 2009, represent the continuation of a tradition that started with the Orange Alternative movement against Soviet control.

These umbrella-holding dwarfs contribute to a citywide artistic movement that includes over 400 bronze figures scattered across Wrocław's streets and squares.

Located at coordinates 51.1113683, 17.0623616 in Plac Grunwaldzki, the statues remain accessible for viewing and photographs throughout the day and night.

Each dwarf statue requires three months of crafting, including detailed sketching, clay modeling, and bronze casting by local sculptors.
