★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Socha a hlavně žulové schody se momentálně rekonstruují. Už se to začíná hezky rýsovat
The statue and especially the granite stairs are currently being reconstructed. It's getting pretty nice

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Tento pomník můžeš nalézt na pražském Karlově náměstí nedaleko Faustova domu. Historie jeho vzniku je natolik zajímavá, že ti doporučuji se s ní seznámit.
Sousoší představuje stojícího botanika a cestovatele v klobouku a rozepjatém kabátě s knihou v pravé a bronzovou květinou v levé ruce. Za jeho nakročenou levou nohou sedí nahý indiánský chlapec s mačetou v pravé ruce.
Benedikt Roezl se narodil 12. srpna 1824 a na tomto světě prožil 22 343 dnů.
You can find this monument on Prague's Charles Square near Faust's house. The history of its origin is so interesting that I recommend you get to know it.
The sculptural group represents a standing botanist and a traveler in a hat and an unbuttoned coat with a book in his right hand and a bronze flower in his left hand. Behind his stepped left leg sits a naked Indian boy with a machete in his right hand.
Benedikt Roezl was born on August 12, 1824 and spent 22,343 days in this world.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Мы с вами в южной стороне парка Карловой площади, которую обрамляет красивый постамент памятника Бенедикту Роэзлу. Я не знаю почему, но в некоторых источниках его фамилия по-русски пишется «Рёцль». Для тех кто неосведомлем, скажу, что это знаменитый ботаник, садовод и путешественник, самый известный коллекционер орхидей своего времени. Бладаря исследованиям Роэзла, были открыты около восьмиста видов цветов и растений, а в его честь названы аж четыре орхидеи.
В 1854 году в погоне за своей мечтой он отправился на американский континент, где поселился в небольшой деоевушке на западном побережье. Там он открыл свое садоводство и периодически отправлялся вглубь лесов Мексики, откуда привозил много новых и неизвестных науке растений. В 1868 году, когда в результате несчастного случая он лишился левой руки, пришел новый этап его научной деятельности – более семи лет на лошадях, поездах, лодках, пешком он путешествовал по США, Колумбии, Перу, Мексики, собирая и пополняя коллекцию редких растений. Умер знаменитый ботаник 14 октября 1885 года в Смихове - ныне район Праги, который, кстати, находится на противоположном берегу Влтавы от Карловой площади. На похороны отважного путешественника приехал сам кайзер Франц Иосиф I.
Если вы обратите внимание, у памятника Бенедикту Роэзлу – две руки, в одной из которых он держит веточку орхидеи, а у его ног склонившийся к земле мифический персонаж, в поисках таинсвенных растений.
Сзади памятника Роэзлу, если посмотреть чуть правее, вы можете заметить небольшой причудливый дом - это Дом Фауста.
We are with you on the south side of the Charles Square park, which is framed by a beautiful pedestal of the monument to Benedikt Roezl. I don't know why, but in some sources his surname is spelled "Rötzl" in Russian. For those who are ignorant, I will say that this is a famous botanist, gardener and traveler, the most famous orchid collector of his time. Thanks to Roezl's research, about eight hundred species of flowers and plants were discovered, and as many as four orchids were named after him.
In 1854, in pursuit of his dream, he went to the American continent, where he settled in a small deoevushka on the west coast. There he opened his gardening and periodically went deep into the forests of Mexico, from where he brought many new and unknown plants to science. In 1868, when he lost his left arm as a result of an accident, a new stage of his scientific activity came - for more than seven years on horses, trains, boats, on foot he traveled around the USA, Colombia, Peru, Mexico, collecting and replenishing the collection of rare plants. The famous botanist died on October 14, 1885 in Smichov - now a district of Prague, which, by the way, is located on the opposite bank of the Vltava from Charles Square. Kaiser Franz Joseph I himself came to the funeral of the brave traveler.
If you pay attention, the monument to Benedict Roezl has two hands, in one of which he holds a branch of an orchid, and at his feet a mythical character bowed to the ground, in search of mysterious plants.
Behind the monument to Roezl, if you look a little to the right, you can notice a small quaint house - this is the House of Faust.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Zajímavé sousoší českého ( navzdory jménu ) cestovatele a botanika - hledače nových druhů rostlin v jižní a střední Americe. Ale nebýt tohoto pomníku na celkem exponovaném místě, byl by pro nezasvěcené už zapomenutou osobou.
Interesting sculptural group of Czech (despite the name) of traveler and botany - a searcher for new species of plants in South and Central America. But if not for this memorial in a rather exposed place, he would be an already forgotten person for the uninitiated.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This monument stands in tribute to Benedikt Roezl, a 19th century Czech botanist and famous for his travels and collector of orchids from his travels. His legacy included documenting more than 800 species of orchids, many of which have been named in his honour.
This monument features a statue of Roezl on a pedestal, with wall on either side to form a sort of horseshoe shaped monument. The sculpture depicts Roezl standing dressed in stereotypical gardening attire. In his left hand, he holds up a spring of a plant, while at his feet is a kneeling native American alluding to his discoveries, contributions and his travels.
The sculpture is a realistic portrayal of Roezl, depicting him in a dignified pose. Sadly, the statue is located away from the tourist circuit of Prague, in Karlovo park where there are also other monuments to many Czech national personalities. The monument is worth a look if visiting the park.
