The 12ft tall bronze sculpture--a walking headless figure with Franz Kafka sitting on the shoulders--was created by a Czech artist Jaroslav Rona. The sculpture was inspired by Kafka’s story “Description of a Struggle.”
The monument was erected in a tiny park between the Spanish Synagogue and the Church of the Holy Spirit, on the border of Prague’s Jewish district in a place that symbolizes the city’s religious and cultural diversity. “It’s an extraordinary unique day for both Franz Kafka and the capital, Prague,” Prague Mayor Pavel Bem told a crowd gathered to watch the unveiling ceremony, on December 4, 2003. “Today we redeem a debt we owe our history and one of the greatest writers of the 20th century.”
The monument was erected by the Franz Kafka Society, which was founded shortly after the collapse of communism in 1989 to promote the legacy of Kafka and other Jewish and German writers from Prague.

Há uns meses os amigos dos The Kafkas assustaram-me avaler quando me desafiaram para lhes fazer umas fotografias promocionais. Agora, alguns meses volvidos, com o “Xanadu” – o disco de estreia deles – perto de sair e a “Shere Khan” – single – a bombar (se não está, devia estar) nas vossas colunas de som, fico feliz por divulgar o resultado desta aventura.
A few months ago, my friends The Kafkas scared the hell out of me by asking me to do some promotional shots. Now, after a few months, with “Xanadu” – their debut – almost out and “Shere Khan” – the single – pumping on your stereos (if it isn’t, then it should), I’m happy to show the results of this adventure.
