Disdainful warrior maiden
This disdainful maiden looks down from a corner between two buildings on Resavska street, not far from the Yugoslav Drama Theater. I don't know why she was put there, and her expression is a mystery to me.
This is a fabulous image. I have never seen a sculpure that has such a human expression. I think she should be called Medusa. She may not have the snake hairdo but she ceratinly has the look that could turn a man to stone. Very well spotted and captured.

Disdainful is right! Reminds me of the looks I used to get when I tried to ask a girl out on a date!
She's probably thinking, "That's right, I'm a warrior angel with a slammin' bod -- and you're NOT!"
Love this image, Bibi.
Wonderful photo!
What a fantastic image! No doubt there is a very interesting story here!
She looks so tucked away and hidden from the world. Her wings are beautiful!
