Past and Future at Piłsudski Square: A Surreal Encounter

When we walked to Piłsudski Square, known as one of Warsaw’s most important public spaces and the site of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, which commemorates all fallen soldiers, we came across a huge construction site. The site was hidden from view by large panels showing images of what the area likely looked like in the past. I found this display to be a beautiful “Trompe-l'oeil,” creating an almost surreal combination of old, representing the past, and new, symbolizing the future - Warsaw, Poland
