Girl Statue -Gorsedd Gardens

The Girl attracts visitors to Wales

Who is the mystery girl in the Gorsedd Gardens in the Welsh capital Cardiff. And I hear she has a lot to say.

The Girl statue was created in 1964 by the Welsh artist Robert Thomas. This life-sized bronze statue portrays a young girl who is in a playful and carefree pose.

She is sculpted in a lifelike form. She embodies the essence of youth and innocence. The sculpture is popular landmark in the city. The piece is admired by visitors and locals. This piece captures both the beauty of childhood and the graceful emotions in a life form. This statue also displays the artistic heritage of Wales.

Cardiff Uni MA International Journalism student Agrima Sharma said she really connected with the statue.

“I personally feel she is lonely, sad, and some deep emotions. The girl is clenching her body towards the feet and crouching pose shows she is lost in her thoughts”.

She described her as tiny and filled with life.
