INFORMATION |
|
|
A statue of the Little Mermaid sits on a rock in the Copenhagen harbour (at 55°41?34.39?N, 12°35?56.59?E). This small and unimposing statue is a symbol of Copenhagen, and a major tourist attraction. The statue was commissioned in 1909 by Carl Jacobsen, son of the founder of Carlsberg, after he had been fascinated by a ballet about the fairytale. The sculptor Edward Eriksen created the statue, which was unveiled on 23 August 1913. He used his wife Eline Eriksen as the model. |
