Gaviusz, Dwarf statue in Przedmieście Oławskie, Wrocław, Poland
The bronze Gaviusz statue stands at ankle height, displaying intricate details and forming part of the extensive collection of dwarf sculptures across Wrocław.
The statue was installed on October 5, 2014, joining hundreds of other dwarf sculptures that emerged from an anti-communist resistance movement in the 1980s.
Gaviusz represents one of more than 400 dwarfs scattered throughout Wrocław, each telling different stories about the city's identity and local traditions.
