About the artwork

The Fiat 500 is an iconic city car produced by Italian carmaker Fiat. It has a rich history and has become a symbol of Italian car design.

The original Fiat 500, also known as the "Cinquecento", was introduced in 1957 and was intended as a small, affordable car for post-war Italy. It was immensely popular and was produced in several versions until 1975 and became a cultural icon of its time.

The Fiat 500 was revived in 2007 with a modern, retro-inspired design. The new model retains the classic aesthetic but incorporates contemporary technology and safety features. Its enduring heritage and adaptability have made it a beloved icon in the automotive world.

The Utrechtse Vecht is a river about 42 kilometres long in the Netherlands, known for its scenic beauty, historical significance and cultural heritage.

The Utrechtse Vecht rises in the city of Utrecht and flows northwards through the provinces of Utrecht and North Holland. It passes through towns such as Maarssen, Breukelen, Loenen aan de Vecht and Weesp, before emptying into the IJmeer near Muiden.

The strategic importance of the Vecht is evidenced by the numerous castles, forts and country estates along its banks. Examples include the impressive castles of Nijenrode and Muiderslot.

The Utrecht Vecht is a river that encompasses much of the historical, cultural and natural heritage of the Netherlands. Its picturesque landscapes, historic estates and recreational opportunities make it a beloved feature of the Dutch countryside.
