"The Little Mermaid" Print

This black and white photograph captures Copenhagen’s iconic Little Mermaid statue in a quiet, contemplative moment. Perched on her stone by the harbor, she gazes out over the water — joined by a single bird resting near her, as if keeping her company in silence.

Stripped of color, the image focuses on texture and contrast: the smooth curve of bronze, the roughness of stone, the soft shimmer of water in the background. It’s a peaceful and intimate take on one of Denmark’s most famous symbols, made timeless through simplicity.
