Thinking about Langelinje and the statue of The Little Mermaid, I found a link with an article and several more pics. Click on the title of this post to view.
I find it a little strange that in America the author of the original tale of "Den Lille Havfrue" is referred to by his full name, Hans Christian Andersen. We Danish know him as simply "H.C. Andersen". He was one of the most beloved Danish authors ever. Other than The Little Mermaid, probably the best known of his many stories would be "Den Grimme Ælling" (The Ugly Duckling).
