The Merlion Lion Fish Statue made in the YouFine factory perfectly replicates the design of Singapore’s iconic sculpture, the fishtail lion, with exquisite details restored, striving to present the same artistic effect as the original.
The scales of the fishtail are clearly layered and the facial expression of the lion’s head is lifelike, reflecting a strong sense of majesty and mystery. The proportions of the sculpture strictly follow the original design, and every detail is consistent with the original fishtail lion statue. Whether it is the expression of the lion’s head or the curvature of the fishtail.
The Story Behind Merlion Lion Fish
The Singapore Merlion is a fictional creature with the body of a fish and the head of a lion. It was designed in 1964 by Mr. Fraser Brunner, the curator of the Van Kleef Aquarium. Two years later, it was adopted as a symbol by the Singapore Tourism Board and remained in use until 1997. During this time, the Merlion became as iconic for Singapore as the Eiffel Tower is for France or the Statue of Liberty for the United States.
The design of the Merlion is based on a legend from Singapore’s history. The “lion” part of the creature represents the city’s original name, Singapura, which means “Lion City” in Malay. The fish body symbolizes Singapore’s beginnings as a fishing village, known as Temasek, which means “sea town” in the Javanese language.
Over the years, the Merlion has become a symbol of Singapore in tourism, branding, sports, and national identity.
