A monument to the painter Nikifor with a brush and a dog, by Czesław Dźwigaj, unveiled in 2005.
The Nikifor Krynicki Monument in Krynica-Zdrój commemorates the painter Epifaniusz Drowniak, known as Nikifor. It stands on a small square between Nikifora Krynickiego and Leona Nowotarskiego streets.
The realisation was chosen by a Polish-Lemko committee, and the design is by the Kraków sculptor Czesław Dźwigaj. The figure of the artist sits on a low wall with a brush in his hand, with a dog lying beside him. The monument was unveiled on 9 September 2005 at a ceremony attended by presidents Aleksander Kwaśniewski and Valdas Adamkus.
It is close from here to the Nikifor Museum in Krynica-Zdrój, and a little further stands the Jan Kiepura Monument.
