On sunny days reflections are so clear and captivating.
On the reflection in the window of this small art gallery, under that scaffold is hidden the statue of Matthias Corvinus (1443- 1490).
King Matthias (Matyas Kiraly in Hungarian) was born in my town and he was King of Hungary from 1458 to his death.
After conducting several military campaigns he became also King of Bohemia, (1469-1490) and Duke of Austria. He was the most popular of all Hungarian Kings,educated, wise, patient, brave and most of all, just. That is why has was also called Matthias Rex (Latin for just), on the memorial plate of the statue .
Statue of Matthias Corvinus (1902) artwork of Janos Fadrusz in front of St. Michael's Church in Cluj-Napoca.
The statue is in restoration for such a long time, more than 10 years, that I had to borrow this free photo from Wikipedia.

Good morninig!
Beautiful photo, I love the reflections you capture.
I also learned that "Kiraly" means king? Very interesting, because I know a guy whose last name is Kiraly. He must have Romanian ancestry! I will impress him by telling him I know what his last name means :-)
