Mermaid (Little). BTW: Her head has been sawed off twice, and a third attempt was made but failed. Her arm was sawed off and once she was blown off her rock with explosives, recovered from the water but with two holes. She has suffered other acts of vandalism.

Why? Just maliciousness?

The first beheading was some kind of protest by a (fanatic?) art group ("situationist movement"). The head was not recovered, a new one was made. The next two beheadings and the arm removal seem to have been souvenir hunters (head & arm recovered). I have not seen an explanation for the use of explosives. The most recent vandalism was in 2020 when "Racist Fish" was painted onto the statue.
