Belgium: Manneken Pis

On Saturday I got two postcards: one from Belgium and one from Cambodia.

The card from Belgium shows Manneken Pis. Manneken Pis is the most famous landmark of Brussels. It is a small bronze sculpture depicting a naked little boy urinating into a fountain's basin and was erected in 1619. For various occasions the statue is dressed in costumes.


Stamp:
Geometry in Nature - The Star Shape (from set of five) (issued 16-06-2019)
with a special postmark from Brussels


Thank You very much William!
