The Music (sculpture)

The Music is one of three sculptures located on the roof of the building on Koszykowa Street 34/50 in Warsaw since 1952. The project was chosen after artistic competition. The monument was designed by Józef Gosławski, but his wife - Wanda - and his brother - Stanisław - helped him with realization because of the short deadline. Lack of scaffolds, problems with obtaining funds and short term forced artists to write a relevant letter to the chief architect of Warsaw - Józef Sigalin.
