Charles Baudelaire (1821-67) stayed here in 1859, with his mother and step-father, and wrote that to stay in Honfleur was the dearest of his dreams (which sounds a little like a tourist guide advert!) I'm not fond of the sculpture as it doesn't fit with any photo I've seen of Baudelaire. Under the bust is a photo of Baudelaire's mother's house in Honfleur.
