 When one is on a bus tour around a city, much of what you would like to photograph is glimpsed briefly through the bus window, and if you're lucky, as I was this day, the bus window is clean. This sculpture is on the sidewalk in Santiago and I can guess that it represents a Mapuche woman sitting in the hot sun with an umbrella to protect her. The Mapuches are the indigenous people of central and southern Chile.
