I bet he is a bit hot today.

Interesting name for a statue, he does look rather cold.

@ludwigsdiana there were 4 on the four corners of an area, one for each season. This was the best photo of the four

[Susan Wakely]

@marlboromaam thank you for the fav Mags

[Casablanca]

They must make a great set

[Olwynne]

Think he needs a hat and scarf...and a pair of warm boots!

[Kathy]

Since he's holding cut flowers, the sculptor must be from "down under."

@ollyfran way too hot here for Mr Winter to dress all wintery. He must be melting.

@randystreat good point, very observant!. I did some research and found out that the sculptor is unknown, the four statues were erected in 1879 and Winter is the only completely original of the four, the other three have been restored many times due to vandalism

[Valerie Chesney]

Quite impressive but, a bit down in the mouth! ha-ha

@happysnaps he’s probably sweltering in this heat 🤣
