Story
Bob Bosch can be found at Wrocławska 43, Mirków, a village just outside Wrocław. The photo on wromap.pl shows a bearded dwarf with a pointed cap and a cheerful look, sitting on a lawn with low buildings and a car park behind him. He sits with a cheerful, slightly raised-brow expression.
History & Significance
No sculptor, sponsor or unveiling date could be found for him. Wrocław's bronze dwarfs trace back to the Orange Alternative, a playful protest movement of the 1980s whose members painted dwarfs on city walls; the city began commissioning bronze dwarfs in 2005, and local businesses and institutions have added many more since. Bob Bosch is one of the dwarfs outside the historic centre. Who commissioned this dwarf is not publicly documented in the sources we found.
Inspiration
His name seems to nod to the Bosch company, which has a brake-systems plant in Mirków according to wroclaw.pl; no source confirms that it placed him there. The sources we found do not describe a specific story behind this dwarf.
