In `Thalia and Pegasos', placed in front of the City Theatre, Kari Juva's skill in uniting mass and the lightness of movement into a seamless one is in good evidence. Pegasos, the inspirer of poetry, carries Thalia, the muse of comedy, on its back, carrying the viewer away in a wild gallop. The work was erected in 1970 and it is cast in bronze.
