Statue Of Mihai Eminescu Cluj-Napoca

The statue dedicated to the national poet of Romania was built in 1976 in front of the National Theatre from Cluj-Napoca. The monument is the work of the sculptor Ovidiu Maitec and it was followed ten years later by the uncovering of the statue of Lucian Blaga, located next to it, the two statues bordering in this way the steps of the theatre. The personality of Mihai Eminescu (1850-1889) was a complex one, distinguishing himself by poetry, prose, dramatics and journalism.
