Krasnale Adwokatka, Dwarf statue in Nadodrze, Wrocław, Poland
Krasnale Adwokatka is a bronze miniature sculpture of a lawyer holding legal documents and wearing professional work attire. It is part of the series of dwarf statues distributed across corners and building facades throughout the city.
The sculpture was installed on October 14, 2017, continuing a tradition of dwarf statues that originated in the 1980s as a form of quiet resistance. This movement later grew into a defining feature of Wrocław.
The statue portrays a figure in legal dress, part of the collection of dwarf sculptures that define Wrocław's streets. It brings attention to women working in law and gives them a place in the city's public space.
The statue is located in the Nadodrze district and is easy to reach on foot since it sits at a corner or facade near busy paths. It makes sense to allow time for a walk around the area to discover other dwarf sculptures along the way.
The name Adwokatka specifically refers to a female lawyer, making this figure a rare example among dwarf statues that portrays women in scholarly professions. This reflects a deliberate choice to honor female professionals in the city's art collection.
