About the Item
The circa 1950 original poster "Manneken Pis Geraardsbergen," after Volgens and photographed by M. Brocorens, is a charming and evocative piece that celebrates one of Belgium's most iconic symbols. This poster, created in the mid-20th century, offers a glimpse into the cultural and historical significance of the Manneken Pis statue in Geraardsbergen.
Geraardsbergen, a picturesque town in Belgium, is known for its own version of the famous Manneken Pis statue, a beloved and quirky symbol that has captured the hearts of locals and tourists alike. While Brussels is home to the more widely recognized Manneken Pis, Geraardsbergen's statue is older and equally revered. This poster highlights the statue in all its glory, emphasizing its historical and cultural importance.
The photographer, M. Brocorens, skillfully captures the essence of the statue, bringing out its playful and enduring charm. The poster's design, attributed to Volgens, showcases the statue against a backdrop that emphasizes its prominence and the town's rich heritage. The combination of photography and artistic design creates a visually appealing and historically significant piece.
During the 1950s, posters like this one played a crucial role in promoting local tourism and pride. They served as vibrant reminders of the unique attractions that towns like Geraardsbergen had to offer. The Manneken Pis statue, with its humorous and endearing pose, became a symbol of the town's character and spirit.
