Thanks Richard. The statue is of a creep called 'Lange Wapper' and he is one of Antwerpen's City legends. He was always teasing the people - mostly the drunks - by following them as a little guy at first - but one that grew and kept on growing very rapidly. Though it is not visible in this picture, the statue also contains some small people - adults, in fact, but their heads are about Lange Wapper's knees, looking up on him in fear... When I get there again, I'll post a picture of this statue, with "het Steen" in the background. Here you can see a pic of this castle...
I'll check Zandra's forums etc. Thanks for the tip! |
