EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of The Brabo Fountain in the Grote Markt, located in the heart of Antwerp, Belgium. Standing tall and proud amidst a bustling square, this iconic fountain is a true testament to Belgian history and folklore. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the magnificent statue at its center. Depicting a heroic figure named Brabo, it tells an ancient tale that has been passed down through generations. Legend has it that Brabo was a Roman soldier who defeated a menacing giant named Druon Antigoon. In an act of bravery and defiance, he severed the giant's hand and threw it into the river Scheldt - hence giving birth to Antwerp's name (hand werpen translates to "throwing hands"). Surrounded by charming cobblestone streets and historic buildings, The Brabo Fountain adds an air of grandeur to this picturesque square known as Grote Markt or Main Market. Its cascading water creates a soothing melody that resonates with locals and visitors alike. Paul Brown's expert photography skills have truly brought out every intricate detail in this stunning print. From the delicate features on Brabo's face to the fine craftsmanship of his bronze body, each element is beautifully captured for all to admire. Whether you're an avid traveler or simply appreciate artistry from afar, this print will transport you straight into the heart of Antwerp's rich cultural heritage.
