Kees Verkade Dancing Couple (1979)

This bronze plastic with the title Dancing couple stands in the garden of the apartment complex 's-Gravenzicht. The work of art was made by sculptor Kees Verkade, who mostly made figurative sculptures made of bronze in which movement is a recurring theme. This is also the case in this statue, in which a boy and girl hold each other's hands and appear to be dancing around. The bronze statue stands on a granite pedestal, but now there are so many plants around it that it is barely visible. The children seem to really dance in the garden. Dancing couple was purchased in 1979 by the Association of Owners of 's-Gravenzicht.
