The Gandhi Angel In the Heart of Moscow

You may have heard of the heavy snowfalls that came down on Moscow in the last few days. While such snowfalls usually play a few tricks with the appearances of people and buildings, this year’s award doubtless goes to the bust of Mohandas Gandhi that stands in the inner yard of the Foreign Literature Library in Moscow. From the side the heap of snow on his head makes him look like wearing a Phrygian cap, whereas from the front he appears like an angel, complete with wings. The Gandhi Angel, no less.
