2019Winged Lion Memorial (Statue) in Prague

Winged Lion Memorial (Statue) in Malostranska Prague. The two metre high Winged Lion is the work of the contemporary British sculptor Colin Spofforth. The Lion was cast in bronze at the artistic foundry in Horní Kalná, Hradec Králové Region. The Lion is placed on a concrete plinth covered by Czech granite. When viewed from above, the circular pedestal resembles the insignia of the Czech Air Force. The plinth side coverings with rivets replicate the fuselage surface of aircraft of the day (Wikipedia.com).
Winged Lion Memorial is Renovated in last month July in 2019. Here you can see the ladscape around it.
