Very rare unique miniature statue of "Hans Mes"
of the miniature statue are only 56 copies, which were issued to the municipality of Zwartewaterland
the original statue is in black lock in the cingelkolk
Veenvaart brings together a number of aspects from which the municipality of Zwartsluis has traditionally derived its right to exist: shipping, trade, peat and water. The artwork offers the view of a sailing ship loaded with a load of peat. Shipping is symbolized by a sail shape and a bow shape that are connected to each other. To symbolize the trade in peat and transshipment, a stack of rough red-brown granite blocks, which refer to peat, is attached to the bottom of the sail shape. On the open side of the nave, the stones form the municipal coat of arms of Zwartsluis due to their square shape, their red color and their arrangement.
