| 説明 | PLEASE, no multi invitations in your comments. Thanks.The Little Mermaid statue was presented to Copenhagen from brewer Carl Jacobsen (The Carlsberg Breweries) in 1913, made by a then little known sculptor called Edvard Erichsen. In 1909, brewer Carl Jacobsen saw solo dancer Ellen Price dance in the ballet "The Little Mermaid" at the Royal Theatre. He was so taken with her that he asked her if she would pose for a statue. She agreed but was not very interested in posing without any clothes on, when she found out just how public the statue would be. Instead sculptor Edvard Erichsen's wife stepped in and modeled for the body. The Little Mermaid symbolizes the fairy tale by Danish author and poet Hans Christian Andersen, the story of a young mermaid who fell in love with a prince who lived on land, and often came up to the edge of the water to look for her love.The story of The Little Mermaid is not a very happy one. She visits a witch and agrees to give the witch her tongue, in exchange for legs to replace her fish tail, so she can live on land with her love, the prince. Also she agreed that every step she takes on her new legs they would hurt like she is walking on swords. To be with her love she becomes a mute and is in pain with every step she took, but despite all her sacrifices she never gets to be with him. |
