Manneken Pis (literally 'little man pee' in Dutch, also known in French as 'le petit Julien'), is a famous Brussels landmark. It is a small bronze fountain sculpture depicting a naked little boy urinating into the fountain's basin. It was designed by Jerome Duquesnoy and put in place in 1618 or 1619. It bears a similar cultural significance as Copenhagen's Little Mermaid.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Thanks for this shot Sir C. Gave me a morning smile of appreciation.

Some funny comments as this little rascal relieves himself Sea.
I think he is trying to make it look like a water color.
Good post and good health to you and yours.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
He is a very famous little man Cornelius and your photo of him is very good with great details.

Excellent capture of the little guy!
Luckily for us you did not make the same mistake I once did... one time I was in Brussels and I walked right past him... looking for something large. LOL

When you're through with life and all hope is lost.
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end.
I guess you have to watch what you turn into a fable. I have seen him somewhere before. I didn't realize he was so high up.

I knew boys who did this from the 10m diving-board at the swimming pool! Great shot Cornelius, of this very famous landmark.

I love sculptures. Perfect angle & the gold tones are eye-catching. Wonderful capture Cornelius ... thanks for the info too.
