Eared seal statue, Bronze statue in Kinského zahrada, Prague, Czech Republic.
The Eared Seal Statue is a bronze figure in Kinský Garden in Prague that portrays a seal positioned near the upper lake. The artwork displays realistic details in metal form and catches light from its surroundings.
Czech sculptor Jan Lauda created this bronze figure in 1953, when artworks began returning to Prague's public gardens. This period marked a renewal of artistic expression in the city after years of interruption.
The seal statue stands among other artworks in the garden, showing how Czech artists created new works for public spaces after the Second World War. Visitors today see it as part of a collection that turns the garden into a place for experiencing art outdoors.
You can find the statue by walking from the main garden entrance toward the upper lake area along the established paths. The artwork sits on an easily accessible route through the park.
The bronze figure changes its appearance noticeably with the seasons as the upper lake surface reflects different colors and light. This effect makes every season the right time to visit the statue.
