“Beggar”, a bronze sculpture, was erected in 2009 on Macedonia Street in the first wave of the “Skopje 2014” project.
According to the author, Natasa Bozarovska, the sculpture is inspired by biblical narratives and has both a social and spiritual dimension. Its originality has been contested due to its similarity to a sculpture by Timothy Schmaltz of Christ as a beggar, located in Ottawa, Canada.
