MADONNA'S SECRET

The sculptural realization of Madonna's secret was a competition announced by the Prague 9 district. The selected design by Zuzana Čížková was re-realized in 2010, 

in the Starý Prosek park, near the church of St. Wenceslas and the cemetery wall. 

The sculpture consists of three   figures of unconventionally conceived Madonnas, which are very similar to each other. 

Each one is handmadehewn into a different type of stone: Hořice  sandstone, Italian fine-grained  marble and Czech granite.  

Originally, a total of five pieces of the Madonna were to be created, but for the remaining two only pedestals have been created according to the floor plan of the statues, and the Prague 9 City Council does not have the financial means to complete the work.
