Anonymous Statue in Budapest: photos, reviews

About

The statue of Anonymous is a composition of bronze and stone dedicated to the medieval monk who wrote the famous "Deeds of the Hungarians." On the stone "throne" sits a chronographer and chronicler with a pen and book, dressed in flowing robes, with the face of Anonymous concealed.

According to legend, the monk known for his work studied in Paris and always wore a dark cloak. This is where his unusual name "Anonymous" came from, although some historians still believe the monk was named Gallus.

The landmark is popular among tourists, who like to touch the tip of the pen and make a wish, which is sure to come true.

Tai paslaptinga ir intriguojanti skulptūra. Rašoma, kad ji skirta nežinomam viduramžių metraštininkui, kuris parašė „Gesta Hungarorum“ (Vengrų žygdarbiai). Šis kūrinys yra ankstyviausia išlikusi Vengrijos kronika. Manoma, kad jis buvo karaliaus Belos III notaras. Skulptūrą sukūrė vengrų skulptorius Miklós Ligeti 1903 m. Sakoma, kad paliečiant Anonimo rašiklį galima sulaukti įkvėpimo rašymui ar moksliniams darbams. Tad natūralu, kad rašiklio viršus yra ypač nutrintas ir blizga. Šis paminklas primena apie žodžių galią ir apie tai, kaip istorija prisimena tuos, kurie ją rašo – net jei jų vardai lieka nežinomi.
