The image shows a public square in Alkmaar, Netherlands, with a bronze statue in the center. The statue depicts a woman surrounded by children, commemorating Truus Wijsmuller-Meijer, who rescued Jewish children during World War II. The inscription around the base reads, "Tante Truus, moeder van 1001 kinderen Truus Wijsmuller-Meijer 1896-1978." The square is paved with brick and cobblestones. In the foreground, two young women are sitting on the raised brick border of the statue's base. One wears a dark jacket and the other a gray jacket with blue jeans. Behind the statue are several buildings with storefronts. The signs above the storefronts read "BOLIA," "ZANZZ," "LOFT 27," and "Di Alma." Several pedestrians are visible in the background. The sky is partly cloudy.
