The image captures a close-up view of a palm-size bronze sculpture featuring the head and shoulders of a boy sitting in a paper ship. He wears sailor's striped vest and peakless hat wit his drooping long ears clearly visible. His head turned to the left side of the frame and his hands are wrapped around the central part of the paper ship.

The image is highlighting the natural texture and color variations characteristic of bronze material - ranging from deep browns to rich gold tones that reflect light subtly. The background is blurred but suggests an outdoor setting with hints of water, possibly indicating the statue's location near a river.

The image captures a charming palm-size bronze sculpture of a young girl with curly hair, sitting on the back of a big snail. The snail's spiral shell provides a comfortable seat for the child showing her tongue as if having just accomplished something mischievous. The girls hair is styled in two braids, and her large drooping a bit pointy ears are clearly visible. The snail appears to be moving along what looks like a fence or railing made from dark metal with vertical bars.

The sculpture exhibits signs of age and weathering, which lend it an antique charm. Its patina indicates that the bronze has oxidized over time, giving it a rich coppery hue.

The background is softly focused but reveals hints of greenery which could suggest an outdoor setting like a garden or park where such sculptures are often found to enhance aesthetics while telling stories through art.

The image captures a palm-size statue of a man sitting on the ground. The man, crafted from metal with hues reminiscent of bronze or brass, appears to be thinking or daydreaming with his arms resting on his raised knees, and his left palm supporting his head. He has a big head and big slightly pointy ears drooping down. He is dressed in a traditional outfit complete with long-sleeved shirt, checked  trousers and shoes with large buckles. His large hat, resembling to Leprechaun's one, is placed on the ground to his right side. The figure is adorned with a hand-made red hat that sports yellow feathers at the top, adding a touch of whimsy to its otherwise serious demeanor.

The statue stands out against a blurred backdrop featuring architectural elements such as windows and balconies, suggesting an urban setting for this tableau. The focus on the figure suggests it might be a point of interest or landmark within its location.

The image captures a bronze statue of a young girl in mid-prayer. She is dressed in traditional attire that includes a long skirt adorned with various patterns and pockets, indicative of historical or cultural significance. The details on her clothing are meticulously crafted, showcasing the intricate designs on both sides of her garment.

Her hands are folded together near her face, suggesting she's engaged in prayer or deep thought. She wears a hat from under which 2 long pointy ears are protruding.

The statue stands on what appears to be a brick surface, possibly indicating an outdoor setting such as a park or courtyard.

Another one of the #Kaliningrad #homlins (see my previuos post). This time it's Grandfather Karl sitting at the Medovy Bridge, Kant island.

The image captures a whimsical scene featuring a brass sculpture of an elderly man with a large, bushy beard and mustache and prominent glasses. He is dressed in a traditional outfit complete with long-sleeved shirt, checked waistcoat, striped trousers and pointed shoes. The figure is seated comfortably on what appears to be the armrests of a bridge railing.

Under this charming character are multiple padlocks, each differing slightly in color and size, suggesting they may have been placed by various individuals. These locks hang against the backdrop of dark metal railings that frame the scene.

The colors within the photo contrast vividly; the golden hue of brass sculpture stands out starkly against its darker surroundings, drawing attention immediately to it while also serving as a centerpiece for all other objects in view - including those padlocks which add splashes of color and intrigue.

The image depicts a palm-size bronze statue of what appears to be an old woman, standing on the edge of a brick platform. The woman is dressed in clothing reminiscent of old-fashioned European attire for women during colonial times; she wears a bonnet and long sleeves with puffed cuffs typical of that era's fashion. Behind the bonnet ends of two long pointy ears are visible. In her hands, she holds a clover leaf.

Beside the woman stands another bronze object resembling a small sack, possibly representing the simple life associated with early settlers in European colonies. The bricks around these figures are aged red and show signs of wear from weathering over time.

Federico #Fubini (Corriere della Sera) dice a La7 che la #Polonia è confinante con la #Russia.

In realtà la #Polonia confina con #Kaliningrad che è un territorio russo situato fuori dai confini della Federazione Russa.
