Sundial And PKiN

Warsaw, Poland

This sundial shows the hour by the shadow of a person who will stand on the name of actual month in the middle.
It's a work of Tadeusz Przypkowski, who designed it and made of granite bricks in 1955.
It's located in front of PKiN - Palace of Culture and Science, built also in 1955.

Wonderful symbol of the victory of human thought, in cooperation with nature, over the stalinist, soviet paranoia!
