This deranged rabbit bursting out of a wooden cage is in Nuremburg, where rabbits are a local symbol thanks to local artist Albrecht Dürer 's famous 1502 painting.

Our guide said that the word is that the sculptor,Jürgen Goertz, didn't much like Dürer's work and there is speculation as to whose (human) foot is depicted sticking out from under its front paw.
superb shot, that rabbit is awesome
