At the top of the column

Au sommet de la colonne

Excellent
Etait-ce parce que le roi Pierre IV du Portugal était aussi premier "empereur" du Brésil qu'l se dresse là-haut comme au sommet d'une colonne, qui a défaut d'être trajane est corinthienne ? Pour rendre hommage à ce roi a rebaptisé la place, bien connue sous le nom de Rossio. Pierre IV est en bronze sombre, bien haut, au-dessus des hommes et des pigeons qui ont l'air davantage d'apprécier les fontaines et le revêtement de carreaux de mosaïque de cette splendide place lisboète qui porte son nom.
Was it because the King Pedro IV of Portugal was also the first "Emperor" of Brazil qu'l stands up as the top of a column, which default to be Trajan's Corinthian? To honor the king renamed the place, well known as the Rossio. Pierre IV is dark bronze, very high, above men and pigeons that look more appreciate the fountains and the coating tile mosaic lisbote this splendid square that bears his name.

Na Praça D.Pedro IV, ou Rossio como é mais conhecido, ao lado do Teatro D.Maria II e entre as duas fontes gêmeas encontra-se a Estátua de D. Pedro IV, que foi o 28º Rei de Portugal, mas o 1º Imperador do Brasil! Existe a lenda urbana de que esta estátua inicialmente não seria de D. Pedro IV, mas sim de um Imperador Mexicano, contudo foram encontradas provas de representa mesmo este Rei.
In Praça D. Pedro IV Rossio or as it is known, beside the Teatro D. Maria II and between the two sources twins is the Statue of D. Pedro IV, who was the 28th king of Portugal, but the 1st Emperor of Brazil! At its base, the four female figures are allegories of Justice, the Wisdom, the Power and Moderation, qualities attributed to King-Soldier. There is an urban legend that this statue would not initially D. Pedro IV, but a Mexican Emperor, however found evidence of this is the same King
