Bathing blonde sculpture in central Hamburg

A giant head with made-up lips and eyes floats above the Inner Alster Lake in central Hamburg.

It’s a shame they have done that to the harbor. I’ve been there once, and Hamburg has a beautiful harbor.

It’s one of those temporary Christo things. I think it’s pretty cool.
