Neptune 🔱 for #monochromemonday and #fotovorschlag "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! ✨

note（ノート）英雄　Герой｜ポイズン雷花英雄は成りたくて成る物では無い。民衆に認められて、初めて成れる物。 己の信じる正義を貫き通し、驕らず。他人の為、善意に務める。 眩ゆいばかりのその麗しき勇姿。人々の目に強く焼き付き、いつしか英雄と呼ばれる様に成る。 こうして英雄伝説は始まる。 汝、強さを示せ。茨の道へ続く門は目の前。 汝、妾の前で力を示せ！ どんなに苦しい時も、どんなに困難な時でも、挫けず、前を向き続ける精神力。 どんな相手にも礼儀を欠かさず、謙虚に振る舞う忍耐。 強敵を打ち破る強さ。真の英雄の有るべき姿。 勇者やら英雄と自ら名乗る者、それは紛い物に過ぎん！ 驕り、他人を見下し、踏み躙る不届者。いわゆる悪党証票が実
