Dwarfs are shown fixing two rhodium atoms into the skeleton of 21,23‐dirhodaporphyrin, the first [18]porphyrin to incorporate two metal atoms within its macrocyclic frame, in place of two core nitrogen donors. The 18‐π‐electron aromatic circuit is maintained, playing a crucial role in stabilizing the macrocycle, and enforcing the metal centers′ proximity. These small metal sculptures of dwarfs are a tourist attraction scattered around Wrocław, the city in Poland where the dirhodaporphyrin was synthesized.
