Incredibly quirky sculpture in the centre of Brussels. If it's a cartoon character I don't recognise who?

This colossal lion weighs some six tons. Made from one piece of marble, it was mounted on a base crowning a funerary monument. The monument itself was square with a circular interior chamber and a stepped-pyramid roof. It is a type of funerary monument inspired by the greater tomb of Maussollos, built about 350 BC at Halikarnassos, less than a day's sail from Knidos.

Recently named one of the world's most quirky tourist sites, it's rare to see the Duke of Wellington Statue in Glasgow without his traffic cone on top...a perfect example of Glasgow humour!
