Talk:Hahn/Cock

The current (2017) location of the sculpture
Please note that there are TWO copies of this sculpture. Do not keep changing the location. The one in Minneapolis is not the original that was first displayed in Trafalgar Square. That one moved to Washington, DC. The second copy is now in the sculpture garden of the Walker Art Center. StarryGrandma (talk) 23:01, 26 September 2017 (UTC)


 * The national gallery hyperlink in the location refers to the UK national gallery, but should link to the USA national gallery 73.65.11.109 (talk) 01:19, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

no analogous double meaning of the German word

 * hahn in German has the same double meaning as "cock" in English

I'm not aware of any such double meaning of the German word... and a quick internet search has not brought any such evidence either. The only 'source' seems to be "France 24", which does not quite strike me to be a particularly reliable source for German double entendres. So if someone has a reliable source that the German word is by Germans understood to mean "penis" (or that artist Fritsch mis-believed the German word to have a sexual double meaning), please reintroduce it into the article (and kindly let me know)... but else, I'm afraid, we'll leave the double meaning to the English word, which the artist has understood well enough... --Ibn Battuta (talk) 21:08, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I am undoing the change. The double meaning in German is also mentioned in the Guardian reference in the same paragraph. Fritsch is German after all, so she herself is a German source. StarryGrandma (talk) 23:28, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
