BIG BLUE COCK ERECTED ON FOURTH PLINTH IN LONDON'S TRAFALGAR SQUARE

A giant, bright-blue cock – its feathers proudly upstanding, its coxcomb as stiff as a pennant in the breeze – has been erected in London's Trafalgar Square.

Hahn/Cock, the latest work to fill the square's empty fourth plinth, is by Katharina Fritsch, the German artist (or "sculpture … er, sculptor … er, sculptress", as Boris Johnson, the mayor of London, described her).

Gleefully feminist, the work pokes amiable fun at the vainglorious statues of men (Nelson, George IV, and generals Havelock and Napier) that surround it in this most imperial of British public spaces. "Humour is always a big thing for me," she said. "It stops things from becoming too severe. I like English humour. It is so often very dark."
