Story
Cezary Przybylski is a dwarf with a very official air: a pointed cap, a jacket, a shirt and a tie, and a big moustache over a broad, friendly smile. He keeps watch by the Oder embankment, in front of the offices of the regional government. Legend among the local dwarfs says that he reads every document twice and signs only when his moustache has finished twitching.
History & Significance
The dwarf is named after Cezary Przybylski (born 1956), who served as Marshal of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship from 2014 to 2024, according to Polish Wikipedia. Wromap lists Beata Zwolańska-Hołod as the sculptor. Sources differ on the address: wromap says Wybrzeże Słowackiego 19, and the citygame guide says Słowackiego 12-14, at the Marshal's Office of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. The sources we found do not give an unveiling date or say who commissioned the dwarf. Wrocław's bronze dwarfs trace their roots to the Orange Alternative, a playful protest movement of the 1980s whose members painted dwarfs on city walls; since 2005 the city has filled its streets with bronze dwarfs, and there are now well over a thousand of them.
Inspiration
Cezary Przybylski is one of the dwarfs that portray a real public figure. The name matches the former marshal of the region, and the figure's moustache, jacket and tie suit an official. We found no source that explains why the dwarf was made, so we do not state a reason.
