Eminescu Statue


Mihai Eminescu is considered the most famous and influential Romanian poet. He has remained forever young: destiny decided that he should pass away in the summer of 1889, at the age of 39. The bronze statue in front of the Romanian Athenaeum (by sculptor Gheorghe Anghel) is a symbolic image of the Morning Star, the hero of Eminescu’s famous poem, a strange legend about the incapacity of the genius to enjoy earthly happiness.
