Barcelona, a photo a day

Mami, he’s gonna melt!!!


The golden man in front of A casa Portuguesa, in Carrer Verdi, Gracia. I think it is Fernando Pessoa, one of the most significant literary figures of the 20th century and one of the greatest poets in the Portuguese language, an amazing poet and writer.
Well, the little girl seems to like him a lot, and might be afraid of him melting, with the summer-in-Dubai kind of temperatures we’re having here right now.

    Glad to see he's wearing a hat, but he could do with stripping a few of those layers off!! What a great sculpture.

    He is definitely a little overdressed for the hot weather!
