The Runner, iconic statue by Costas Varotsos, persevering through last Monday’s blizzard. Athens, Greece Tags:Europe 37 comments Photographer: Igor Mityakov amazing how snow change the statue. Normally it really look like blurred fast running person, now it is still moving but is struggling in the storm Fun fact, the statue is so sharp that even if you litely touch it from any angle ir will leave a scar For anyone playing GW2, that’s an icebrood colossus. Remind me a lot of Unique Forms of Continuity in Space of Boccioni Edit : also because both the sculptures take example from the Nike of Samothrace. Can’t someone fix his frozen debuff? Even more striking in the snow! It almost looks sideways I’m on my way to Athens now… 70 km to go. What shitty weather today Looks like a ninja turtle from the front https://imgur.com/FKdKQ5y More like the dabber. Wait, there was a blizzard in Athens? Is that common?? Our parents on their way to school every day, uphill. Reminds me of [this](https://i.redd.it/0ab10a54svm51.png) tree in Bulgaria. Looks really cool with the snow article contains pictures without snow for reference https://www.artpeoplegallery.com/40-foot-tall-public-sculpture-created-by-greek-artist-costas-varotsos/ Looks like a Japanese manga battle suit or battle robot. Bro, why is Athens getting more snow than Oslo… Is he naruto running? Run forrest run! What the fuck am I looking at? Why have I never heard of this statue?? It looks insanely cool, with or without snow. [Some more about the statue](https://costasvarotsos.com/webportfolioitem/show/11/). Wow, that’s cool statue – reminds me of “The Shrike” creature from Hyperion novel /r/glitch_art Who sommoned the ithaqua!? Wow, looks great. When you run faster than light, all you ever see is darkness. This looks sick lol This looks cool as fuck with the snow He dabs This would look great in the london museum. This looks like from another world ✨ Naruto run To be fair, it looks a lot like that on a sunny day too. Minus the snow drifts of course. That looks like something from dark souls.
