  • 4 years ago
Latvia is honoring the doctors, nurses and medical workers on the front lines in the fight against Covid-19 with a giant statue in the nation's capital.

Artist Aigars Bikše unveiled the statue on Tuesday at a ceremony outside the Latvian National Museum of Art in Riga.
The statue is almost 20 feet tall (6 meters) and shows a woman in a lab coat, mask and gloves stretching toward the sky. She's wearing pink clogs and has a stethoscope around her neck.
