mermaid statue
Copenhagen's bronze icon
A mermaid statue is a sculptural depiction of a mermaid—typically a female figure with a human upper body and fish tail.
The most famous is Copenhagen's Little Mermaid, based on the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale.
Mermaid statues appear in coastal towns, harbors, and fountains worldwide, often serving as local landmarks or tourist attractions: We posed for photos by the mermaid statue on the pier.
