About the artwork
The City Virgin on the fountain on the Brink of Deventer Overijssel.
On the Brink in Deventer is a Wilhelmina fountain. The monument was unveiled in 1898 on the occasion of the inauguration of Queen Wilhelmina. The monument was designed by the Deventer city architect J.A. Mulock Houwer. The construction of this fountain - not as a Wilhelmina monument, by the way - had already been planned in 1893, when the Deventer waterworks were completed. Lack of money forced then to abandon the construction. In 1898 the opportunity arose to place a fountain after all. The monument - of which the cast iron parts were cast at Nering Bögel - hinges on these two thoughts. Unlike the inscription on the pedestal (which reads Wilhelminafontein) suggests, the monument contains no other references to the monarch. On the pedestal is the City Virgin of Deventer, made by Wilhelmus Gerhardus van Poorten. She is provided with a laurel leaf and a shield on which the city arms are printed.
The fountain was demolished in 1960 to allow car traffic free passage over the Brink. Changed views on car traffic in the inner city led to the monument being re-erected in 1985. The structure has been included in the register of national monuments since 1998.
