“COVID and the city”-Photograph taken in Aarau city, in April 2021. The statue is actually dedicated to the soldiers of the Aargau during the years 1914-1918, and 1930-1945.

Usually, around this time of the day, the city represents itself quite crowded. At this time, during the corona pandemic, there’s is hardly people on the streets. The Soldier seems to say “No, don’t go there! It is dangerous”.
