Kentauren / Centaur - Stockholm, Sweden - Epic Beings and Creatures on Waymarking.com

In September 1939 a statue of the Centaur by sculptor Sigrid Fridman was installed at the north-eastern corner of Observatory Hill, and is still readily visible to those visiting the eastern sectorof the park.

The artist has chosen to render Keiron (Chiron), the wise centaur, who symbolizes nature’s healing capacity. The sculpture caused heated debate that lasted almost ten years before it finally was erected and unveiled in 1939. It is Fridman's best known work of sculpture; she was also a poet.
