Manneken-Pis : Collection "Lieux de Memorie", Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

The astonishing fame enjoyed by Manneken-Pis is inversely proportional to his size.

However, as surprising as this may seem, his story is still largely unknown.

During which period did the statue first appear? When did he receive his first costumes? When was he first used to symbolise that mischievous and irreverent spirit that the inhabitants of Brussels have claimed for themselves?In a more general sense, when did he first embody the city's image abroad?

This book invites you to discover the many facets of the Manneken-Pis phenomenon. Text in English, French and Dutch.
