The Shoes on the Danube Bank (Cipők a Duna-parton) is a poignant memorial located in Budapest on the bank of the Danube River, just a short walk from the Hungarian Parliament Building.<br />
Created by film director Can Togay and sculptor Gyula Pauer in 2005, the artwork consists of 60 pairs of iron shoes styled in the fashion of the 1940s. The footwear—comprising men's, women's, and children's shoes—is arranged seemingly at random along the edge of the stone promenade, as if just left behind by their owners.<br />
The monument commemorates the victims of the Holocaust in Budapest, specifically the Jewish people who were shot on the riverbanks by Arrow Cross militiamen between 1944 and 1945. Prior to being executed, the victims were forced to remove their shoes—a valuable commodity at the time—so they could be recovered and resold. The bodies then fell directly into the waters of the Danube, which swept them away.<br />
The absence of human figures makes the installation deeply evocative: the emptiness left inside each shoe speaks with silent drama to the tragedy of the lives cut short.<br />

Le Scarpe sulla riva del Danubio (Cipők a Duna-parton) è un toccante memoriale situato a Budapest, sulla sponda del fiume Danubio, a pochi passi dal Parlamento ungherese.<br />
L'opera, ideata dal regista Can Togay e realizzata dallo scultore Gyula Pauer nel 2005, è composta da 60 paia di scarpe in ghisa modellate nello stile degli anni '40. Le calzature—da uomo, da donna e da bambino—sono disposte in modo apparentemente casuale lungo il bordo della banchina di pietra, come se fossero state appena lasciate lì dai loro proprietari.<br />
Il monumento commemora le vittime dell'Olocausto a Budapest, in particolare gli ebrei che tra il 1944 e il 1945 vennero fucilati dai miliziani delle Croci Frecciate proprio sulle rive del fiume. Prima di essere giustiziate, le vittime venivano costrette a togliersi le scarpe, un bene prezioso all'epoca, in modo che potessero essere recuperate e rivendute. I corpi cadevano poi direttamente nelle acque del Danubio, che li trascinava via.<br />
L'assenza di figure umane rende l'installazione incredibilmente evocativa: il vuoto lasciato da ciascuna scarpa racconta con silenziosa drammaticità la tragedia delle vite spezzate.</p>

<p>A fascinating look at early-stage fasciation (cresting) on a Turbinicarpus. If you look closely, two pups are growing from the old, corked base: one is just starting to show the very first signs of mutation, while the other is already beautifully twisting into a spiral vortex</p>

<p>42030-1 (Koper Tovorna-Soroksári úti rendező) Although time has passed for the V43 series electric locomotives in passenger transport (due to speed and comfort requirements), they still perform excellently at the head of domestic freight trains. At GySEV, they are now used almost exclusively for such freight transport tasks. This is a completely realistic and classic railway operation scenario: at GySEV CARGO, these veteran, 40-60 years old V43 "Szili" locomotives still play a major role to this day when more modern traction capacities are fully tied up in InterCity traffic.</p>
