The figure No. 248 is a reproduction of the famous Belgian Boy one block from the Grand Hotel in the heart of Brussels.As the story of the Belgian Boy goes, this little child was the son of the town mayor and was lost for three days.  The entire town turned out to search for him with no success in finding him.  At the end of the third day, the little boy was discovered standing on the exact street corner, wearing no clothes, and doing what he is appearing to do.  The townspeople were so overjoyed that the child was found, they commissioned Belgium’s finest sculptor to model the child exactly as he was found.  Thus creating this famous fountain.
