Square Marie-Louise has its own impressive sized lake surrounded by a little park. it’s in fact one of the only six ponds left in the city of Brussels.

Can you tell me more about Marius Vos? I have a sculpture fountain in Limestone signed by Marius Vos. It is bigger than lifesize figures, 3, with a backdrop of waterfall, titled the “Song of Love”.

I have found but very little information about Marius Vos. All that I managed to dig was that he won the gold medal for the “Birth of a Nation” sculpture in the international exhibition of Paris of 1937 and later made gift of it to the city of Brussels.
