The Resistance Monument is a monument honouring the Dutch resistance in World War II, consisting of a six-metre-high statue of a woman carrying a torch, symbolising the resistance. The statue was created by sculptor Corinne Franzén-Heslenfeld. The woman is classically designed, with a bared upper body and a draped skirt. A female figure was deliberately chosen because of the Utrecht women's part in the resistance. The monument was unveiled by Prince Bernhard on 4 May 1949. The National Remembrance Day in Utrecht is held at this monument. This photo was taken in the evening of 31 January 2012. Dark Utrecht. This is the name of my series of photos of Utrecht places after sunset. Most Dark Utrecht photos were shot at dusk. On www.facebook.com/donkerutrecht I post a new photo every day.
