BRUSSELS, BELGIUM: 2 FEMALE NUDES EMBRACING
This larger than life sculpture is located in front of the Finance Tower in the center of Brussels. I believe the sculptor is from Milan, Italy.ย ” ‘Fonderia D’Arte De Andreis, Milano’ (Milan, Italy). And an engraved inscription gives a name that appears to be ‘Nat Helligan’, and the apparent dates 1952-1984. ”ย https://www.flickr.com/photos/22325431@N05/4038175688

BRUSSELS, BELGIUM: MANNEKEN PIS
There are many myths about this little ‘rebel of Brussels,’ but my favorite is the one that claims he is Duke Godrey lll of Leuven and as a 2-year old Lord, his troops put him in a basket and hung him in a tree for encouragement. The enemy troops of Berthout walked by and he urinated on them. Berthout eventually lost the battle.

LIER, BELGIUM: A HERMIT’S LIFE
Saint Gummarus of Lierย was a Belgian saint. He was the son of the Lord of Emblem ย An official in the court of his relative Pepin the Younger, after a number of years in military service he retired to live the life of a hermit. The town of Lier grew up around his hermitage. (wiki)
The Pepper pot
St Gummarus Tower, known as the “Peperbusโ (Pepper pot) to the people of Lier, is 83m high.
Due to a number of catastrophes it took almost four centuries to build. We can see this from the various architectural styles: Gothic at the bottom, the octagon resting on this is late Gothic, the top octagon is late baroque and the tower roof is rococo.ย https://www.visitlier.be/en/see/points-interest/st-gummarus-tower
