Joan Miro’s bronze sculpture “Femme aux beaux seins” (The Woman with Beautiful Breasts), is on display at the Baksı Museum, which won the Council of Europe Museum Prize for 2014

The museum was established in 2010 in the village of Baksı by Professor Hüsamettin Koçan and is located 45 kilometers away from the eastern Black Sea city of Bayburt.

The Council of Europe Museum Prize for 2014 was awarded in December 2013 to the Baksı Museum by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe’s (PACE) Committee on Culture, Science, Education and Media. Koçan received the prize on April 8 at the Rohan Palace in Strasbourg.

Baksı Museum will display the bronze statuette of Miro, the symbol of the prize, throughout the year.
