Standbeeld - Statue - a photo on Flickriver

Het standbeeld van Anne Frank op het Merwedeplein in Amsterdam. Zij, haar zus en ouders woonden hier op nummer 37-2 van 1933/1934 tot aan 1942. Hier begon Anne te schrijven in haar dagboek.
Het standbeeld verbeeldt dat zij nog een laatste blik werpt op haar huis voor zij onderduikt in het Achterhuis. Het huis dat zij verlaat bevindt zich achter de boom in het midden. Voor het huis liggen nu ‘stolpersteine’ voor de familie Frank. Zie hier: flic.kr/p/2g9DGTi

Eén van mijn opa’s was van 1939 tot 1945 directeur op een school in het noorden. Recent hoorde ik dat op die school een joodse leraar werkte. Op last van de Duitse bezetter moest hij verhuizen naar Amsterdam. Onheilspellend…

Deze week was het 75 jaar geleden dat de Geallieerden in Normandië landden, volgende week is het 90 jaar geleden dat Anne Frank werd geboren.

The statue of Anne Frank on the Merwedeplein in Amsterdam. She, her sister and parents lived here at number 37-2 from 1933/1934 to 1942. Here Anne started to write in her diary.
The statue represents that Anne is casting a very last glance to her house before she went into hiding in the Achterhuis (‘Backhouse’, The Secret Annex). The house she is leaving is on the second floor behind the tree in the middle. In front of the house there are ‘stolpersteine’ (stumbling stones) for the Frank family. See here: flic.kr/p/2g9DGTi

One of my grandfathers was director of a school in the north of the Netherlands from 1939 to 1945. Only recently I found out that a Jewish teacher worked at that school. On one day it was required by the German occupation that he had to move to Amsterdam. An ominous sign...

This week it was 75 years ago the Allied forces landed in Normandy, next week it is 90 years ago Anne Frank was born.
