Street Photography Round 106 | Bratislava

Two young tourists pose, stretched out on the ground, next to ˘Cumil (the observer), a bronze sculpture that has become an obligatory stop for anyone visiting the capital of Slovakia. The figure represents a former worker of the socialist era who cleaned the sewers and because of his idleness, spent a lot of time leaning out of the elevation, evil tongues say that to see under the skirts of the girls. In any case, it also represents the ironic and playful character of the city, giving the center of Bratislava a touch of humor.

Dos jóvenes turistas posan, estiradas en el suelo, junto a ˘Cumil (el observador), una escultura de bronce que se ha convertido en parada obligatoria para todo el que visita la capital de Eslovaquia. La figura representa un antiguo trabajador de la época socialista que limpiaba las alcantarillas y por su desidia, se pasaba mucho tiempo asomado a la alzada, dicen las malas lenguas que para ver por debajo de las faldas de las chicas. En todo caso también representa el carácter irónico y lúdico de la ciudad, dando a centro Bratislava un toque de humor.
