Est la scultpure d'un célébre personagge qui illustre la sportive competition entre les èquipes de football de l'Union Saint-Gilloise et du Daring Club de Bruxelles
This sculpture honours a fictional character Madame Chapeau, from the Belgian comedy play, Bossemans et Coppenolle by Joris d’Hanswyck.
The sculpture depicts the elderly Madame Chapeau carrying a bag. The bag contains some vegetables and a rabbit that Madame Chapeau is planning on selling to get a ticket for a a football match (must be a famous scene from the play).
Probably works best if you're familiar with Belgian culture.

Funny to realize it's actually a man wearing old lady clothes!?!?! Counting his change in a pick-pockets area.. that's funny!
This is my grandfather Georges Etienne who played this character on stage.
Designed to create a dynamics between two streets, this sculpture beams with its presence in the space that was allocated to the artist. The monument is precious to Belgium's (and especially Brussels') .
