We've added the photogrammetric statue of Victor Noir to the project:

Victor Noir, (27 July 1848 in Attigny, Vosges 11 January 1870 in Paris), was a French journalist who is famous for the manner of his death and its political consequences. His tomb in the Pre Lachaise Cemetery in Paris later became a fertility symbol.


A life-sized bronze statue was sculpted by Jules Dalou to mark his grave, portrayed in a realistic style as though he had just fallen on the street, dropping his hat which is depicted beside him.

The sculpture has a very noticeable protuberance in Noir's trousers. This has made it one of the most popular memorials for women to visit in the famous cemetery. Myth says that placing a flower in the upturned top hat after kissing the statue on the lips and rubbing its genital area will enhance fertility, bring a blissful sex life, or, in some versions, a husband within the year. As a result of the legend, those particular components of the otherwise verdigris (grey-green oxidized bronze) statue are rather well-worn and shiny.

The statue in the project is photogrammetric so it's very realistic and as close to the original as possible.
