The Partisans, Aluminum sculpture in Seaport District, Boston, United States
The Partisans features five exhausted riders mounted on thin horses, carrying spears with their heads bowed in a powerful display of determination.
Created in 1979 and installed in Boston in 1983, this monument honors Polish resistance fighters who opposed the communist regime after World War II.
The sculpture represents the universal spirit of resistance against oppression through its depiction of weary warriors continuing their fight for freedom.
Located at the intersection of D Street and Congress Street, the 7-meter-tall monument stands in the median, accessible by public transportation.
The aluminum figures portray forest ghosts rather than human beings, reflecting the physical and emotional toll of prolonged resistance movements.
