Mother Theresa Statue
Mother Teresa statue, a Roman Catholic nun and missionary fashioned in bronze, is a Peace Nobelist of Albanian heritage. The monument, which was unveiled in 2002 in Pristina's major square named after her, employs Christian symbolism and is intended to portray Mother Teresa's weltschmerz, while the figure of the infant emerging from her draperies represents the world's least fortunate. Mother Teresa became noted for her universalism after leaving the Sisters of Loreto order, becoming the mother of the world who committed herself totally to the destitute and worked in Calcutta, India for the most of her life.
