The Little Mermaid: This Little Mermaid in Denmark is More Than 100 Years Old
The Little Mermaid, Copenhagen
1913 was a special
year for Copenhagen, because the Little Mermaid decided to leave
the ocean and get immortalized in the shores of Copenhagen. All thanks to
Edvard Eriksen, a bronze statue of The Little Mermaid (Danish: Den lille havfrue)
at the Langelinie promenade has been seen since.
Based on the fairy
tale of the same name by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen, the small and unimposing statue is a popular
target for tourist goers, vandalizers, and political activists. If in Singapore,
there’s the Merlion, or if in New York, there’s Lady Liberty, in Copenhagen,
there are in fact three little Mermaids scattered around the city (though most
tourists only know one).
Seeing it in real
life is a bit of a surprise: not as beautiful as Ariel,
nor as iconic as the movie. BUT, it’s actually quite funny to see it with
tourists and people hanging around with this mermaid. Check out some of the
pictures I got when we visited their human-like mermaid that does not resemble
the Disney’s version. FYI: Last 23
August 2013, this little mermaid turned 100 years old.
