Sculpture Neringa - Klaipeda, Lithuania
The sculpture Neringa. 'Neringa' is holding two sailboats on her shoulders, and honors the region's sailing traditions. This was an unusually beautiful sculpture.
Klaipeda, Lithuania is the third largest city of Lithuania and the largest port city. Over the past couple of hundred years it has been controlled by the Polish, Prussians, Germans and Russians. Architecture reflects all these periods; the Russians / Soviets were the last occupier and their shadow of poverty and neglect still shows in about one-third of the buildings we saw.
