The plaster statue of Frédéric Chopin is a full sized, realistic sculpture created in 1950'. The figure is actually a plaster cast reinforced with steel bars, standing in contrapposto. The face of the statue was depicted quite simply. The author, Jan Szczepkowski, was very much fond of Chopin's work, especially because of the compositor's interpretation of folklore included in many pieces. The sculptor as well based most of his artwork on folk themes and techniques. In 1995 Szczepkowski took part in the second contest for the pianist's monument to be placed in Warsaw.
