Gryfosław, Bronze dwarf statue in Old Town Market Square, Wrocław, Poland.
The bronze sculpture Gryfosław depicts a dwarf in a sitting position examining an old book near the Market Square entrance.
The figure represents part of the Orange Alternative movement that used dwarf imagery to protest against communist censorship during the 1980s.
Local artisans created this sculpture as part of a collection of over 300 bronze dwarf statues placed throughout the streets of Wrocław.
Visitors can locate Gryfosław using dedicated dwarf maps available at tourist information centers and local bookstores in Wrocław.
The statue highlights the connection between Wrocław's academic heritage and the dwarf tradition through its portrayal of literary pursuits.
