Neptune 🔱 for #monochromemonday and #fotovorshlag "Monochrom" / "Monochrome"

I've previously talked a little about the history of Bologna's Neptune, but here are a couple of fun facts:
🍆 From a specific angle, Neptune’s thumb aligns perfectly with his groin, creating the illusion of a very happy chap. Supposedly, this was done on purpose as the "virility" of the statue had been previously called into question and the Cardinal asked for more modest proportions to comply with religious regulations at the time. However, Giambologna had the last laugh and saw of way of showcasing Neptune.
🥇 There's supposedly a tradition of walking around the statue twice anticlockwise before exams, to ensure good marks. This is meant to mimic how Giambologna circled the fountain in contemplation and then created the masterpiece- can any Uni students confirm this because I've heard of it, but never seen anyone do it! ✨

Dummeklemmer Ratingen
Ratingen ist die Stadt der „Dumeklemmer“ – also der „Daumen-Klemmer“. Der Legende nach klemmte ein Ratinger dem heiligen Suitbertus den Daumen im Stadttor ein – und zack, war der Spitzname geboren. Ob nun göttlicher Fluch oder rheinischer Humor: In Ratingen nimmt man das mit einem Lächeln. Und mit den Daumen, der bis heute stolz in Bronze gestreckt werden.;0;454
