Rare dutch "Gaper" statue with monkey on his shoulder.
Located in Leuven , BE

The figurehead first appeared in the late 16th century as a hangout sign used outside the storefronts of drug stores in the Netherlands.

The gaper's gaping tongue could represent the intake of medicine and grimace represents the bitter taste of the medicine. The gaper takes on various appearances that are symbolic of the origin for the pharmacist...
