Something so strange about these. I stood next to a similar one in Pompeii. Makes you want to pick it up and set it right!

Thank you all for all your responses to this photo. I did some research after the response of @rensala The statue is made by Igor Mitoray and is called Eros Bendato.

Eros Bendato (Eros bound) I photographed this sculpture in Krakow, I posted the image December 2014 and April 2020. I was not aware that it was a travelling installation, it is beautiful.

@sjc88 It was a beautiful mask and it’s very interesting to know that you’ve seen it in Krakow. You took great shots of it!
