Gimnazjalista

Gimnazjalista is a bronze figure depicting a student carrying books, positioned in a residential area on the northern side of Wrocław. The sculpture displays characteristic details of the city's dwarf collection, rendered in miniature proportions.

The figure was created after 2005 as part of Wrocław's expanded dwarf collection. It emerged following the establishment of the first five figures by sculptor Tomasz Moczek in earlier years.

This figure belongs to Wrocław's broader collection of dwarfs that has grown since the 1980s. The statues reflect a tradition of populating the city streets with small bronze sculptures that connect to local identity.

The figure is located in a residential neighborhood and is easiest to find using specialized dwarf maps or dedicated mobile applications. Daytime visits offer the best conditions for photographing the bronze details.

The figure embodies values of education through its portrayal of a student carrying books, a subject that is relatively uncommon within the collection. This specific imagery connects the dwarf to local values that extend beyond artistic expression.
