The Statue Of The Little Princess Statue Sitting On The Railings Of The Danube Promenade In Budapest, Editorial Image

It was placed in an elegant location on the Danube promenade. It became a symbol of Budapest.I modeled it after my own daughter said Laszlo Marton in his studio. she was maybe six years old and playing in the garden. She dressed as a princess: laid a bathrobe on her shoulders and put a crown on her head. I managed to capture this moment and immediately felt that this was a successful work of art. Years later, the capital requested a statue from me. I immediately thought of the Little Princess and luckily we managed to find the place where the statue feels good.A larger size copy of this statue was placed on the Danube promenade in 1990, and a second copy in Tapolca, the artist`s hometown. A copy of the same statue stands in Japan too, donated by the artist in front of the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Space cultural center`s concert hall. The original statuette is owned by Hungarian National Gallery.
