Palma – Emile Georges Racovitza Statue

Emile Georges Racovitza was a Romanian zoologist and speleologist, a word I hadn’t heard of before, but means a cave scientific specialist. At first sight, he had limited connections to Palma, but he did have an important role in 1904, when he helped excavate and understand the caves known as Cueva del Drach. It’s an interesting statue, but I’m unsure who paid for it or sculpted it.
