Talk:Kungsträdgården

Squares of both Charles
The third paragraph of this section says:
 * Now, Stockholmers were widely displeased with Charles XIII and therefore referred to the statue as "a gardener without a garden just as a king without honour" and, as Charles XII is surrounded by four backs from mortars, in Swedish called kruka ("pot") and Charles XIII is flanked by four lions, again popular humour used the opportunity to throw some dirt at the latter by referring to both statues as "a lion among pots and a pot among lions".

This misses the joke/insult, in that kruka is also slang for "coward" [wiktionary ] -- the reference is really to Charles XII being a brave lion surrounded by cowards, while Charles XIII is just a coward encircled by lions. -- Idontcareanymore (talk) 13:09, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
