Girl with a bowl

'Girl with a Bowl', known as the 'Kolkhoz Maiden', is a 1964 figure by Juta Eskel in high-fired chamotte ceramic: a standing young woman in a headscarf holding a wide bowl in her lowered hands. For a long time she stood in front of the old distillery of Lagedi manor, where separate little chicks sat beneath the bowl, as if she were feeding them. After a brief spell at the corner of Kaarli boulevard and Toompea street, she found a home in Tallinn's Lembitu park.

„Tütarlaps kausiga” ehk „Kolhoosineiu” on Juta Eskeli 1964. aastal kõrgkuumuses põletatud šamotist valmistatud kuju: seisev pearätiga neiu, kes hoiab langetatud kätes laia vaagnat. Pikka aega seisis ta Lagedi mõisa viinaköögi ees, kus vaagna all olid eraldi kujud – tibud, justkui neiu neid toidaks. Pärast lühikest peatust Kaarli puiestee ja Toompea tänava nurgal leidis ta koha Tallinna Lembitu pargis.
