Moving lovers statue stands out to the crowd

Moving Lovers sculpture attracts large crowds.


Nothing hurts like a thousand daggers to the heart as a tale of love that fails to meet its happy end. This one here is a real-life representation of two fictional lovers, who get separated at the hands of fate, at the end of a popular 1937 novel Ali and Nino: A Love Story.
Ali and Nino: A Love Story
Kurban Said, who penned the novel, writes how Ali, a Muslim boy, and Nino, a Georgian princess, fall in love but never unite due to the invasion of the Soviet Union. Beautifully translated into two 26-foot-tall steel statues by Georgian sculptor Tamara Kvesitadze, a tragic saga of love finds immortality in the rarest of rare forms.

Every day, at 7 PM, the statues of Ali and Nino move towards each other...
