Monsieur Jacques

Rotterdam has many sculptures I noticed. This "Monsieur Jacques" looked familiar to me, I had seen him before in another place as you can see here. Apparently he likes to visit other cities too.

This time I took a look what he was hiding behind his back.

  3. I wouldn't mind Monsieur Jaques in our town square, right beside or in front of the Library or somewhere near the fountain. He does rather remind me of Alfred Hitchcock, except for face profile. Neat and interesting.

  4. Cuando visité Rotterdam, no ví esta singular estatua.
    A mí tambien me recuerda a Hitchcok.

  5. We do not have enough sculptures in our city of Saint Paul but wish we had more. I wonder if this one is a good likeness of the person?

  6. It s not Mr. Hitchcok, he is just a fictive person called Jacques.

  7. I thought I recognized M Jaques Marianne, he does get around doesn't he. So it was a hat behind his back all this time!!

  8. What we need are characters like this who make us think. This guy is pompous.

  9. Grappig om hem op verschillende plekken te zien. Lijkt inderdaad op Hitchcock!

  10. Is the sculpture based on a character or just the imagination of the sculptor. His stance is very 'Hitchcock'.
