Dancing before Carnival. 'Tango' and the Ferris Wheel, Venlo, The Netherlands
The end of October will have the traditional Autumn Carnival (Kermis) in Venlo. Already a giant Ferris Wheel has been erected next to the yachting harbor just off the centre of town along the Meuse River. You can just see a sliver of the river on the left behind scarlet 'Tango'. That sculpture was made by Fons Schobbers (1947-) and placed here in 2018. It's quite an eye-catcher and it commemorates that Venlo was granted city rights in 1343.
