Gnomes of Wroclaw

This post is dedicated to the Seaview gnomes of Forster.

There are about 160 of us living in the city of Wroclaw. We hide in the open but most people walk right past us without seeing us. 

We are a very political community and began our career as a protest in the 1980s against the restrictions on public comment that were enforced at the time.  When the authorities painted over political graffiti, we painted over  again with pictures of ourselves.  We are a rather brassy cold mob but have warm hearts than include a GPS locator in case we roam too far or we are abducted.

Love from the Seaview Gnomes. We are more coLourful but not nearly as well bred. You have aged much better than we have but we have been subjected to sea air rather than snow. Feel free to visit any time you wish.
