This lovely statue was created by Pieter d’Hont and was placed here next to the Singel Canal in 1996. She’s apparently inspired by someone the artist knew and he’d made several copies by the time this one was part of a sculpture route around the city and then later moved to its present location.

Ah yes, I must have passed this lovely statue dozens of times on my way to work and back during my years living in Amsterdam. Thanks for reminding me of some fond memories.

Aw, how lovely. She was definitely one of my favourite statues I saw in Amsterdam.
