This intriguing 3.75m bronze by sculptor Jaroslav Rona was erected in 2003 for the 120th anniversary of Kafka's birth. The sculpture was inspired by Kafka's short story Description of a Struggle which tells the story of a man strolling around Prague on another man's shoulders. The sculptor portrayed Kafka sitting on the shoulders of a headless and armless giant, a mysterious image that could be an evocation of the golem or the anguish and dismay characteristic of Kafka's work.
