Japanese nursery rhyme "Akai kutu" are famous for poetry by Ujo Noguchi , but there is an statue of the model of the girls with "Akai kutu" in Azabujuban.
Akai kutu is red shoes.
童謡｢赤い靴」は、野口雨情の詩で有名ですが、
その赤い靴の女の子のモデルの像が、この麻布にあります。
銅像の下のプレートを読むと歌では異人さんに連れられて行っちゃっとありましたが
実際にはアメリカへ渡る前に病気で幼くして亡くなられたそうです。
それを偲んでこのゆかりの地に銅像が立てられてあります。
I will try another statue on the Azabu Juban road.
麻布のきみちゃん像は有名ですが
他にも道路に銅像が立っています。
