A nearby plaque reads: 'POWERLESS STRUCTURES, FIG. 101 / ELMGREEN & DRAGSET / B. 1961 COPENHAGEN - B. 1968 TRONDHEIM / 'Powerless Structures, Fig. 101' is a sculpture of a boy astride his rocking / horse. A child has been elevated to the status of historical hero, though there is / not yet a history to commemorate - only a future to hope for. Cast in bronze, the / work references the traditional monuments in the square, but, with its golden shine, / it celebrates generations to come. / "We wanted to create a public sculpture which, rather than dealing with topics of / victory or defeat, honours the everyday battles of growing up." / Elmgreen & Dragset / The sculpture is 4.11 metres high and 4.32 metres long and weighs 3.1 tons.'
