Naakte dame - zicht op de Kleine Geul.
.
Perhaps the most special view of the Kleine Geul, but probably also the most photographed woman in Valkenburg. It is a bronze nude sculpture by an unknown artist on a footbridge over the Kleine Geul river. She leans relaxed over the railing of the bridge, aided in height by a champagne cooler as a plinth. A beautiful classic hairstyle above a young face, the somewhat large breasts concealed in the relaxed arms, the back provocatively high in the air on stately slender legs. A little further on is more art in presumably the same style, but then a motorcycle with a coolly dressed motorcyclist, perhaps by the same artist..

.
Artwork Cornucopia - Hoorn des Overvloeds - the interior of the Markthal is covered with a 11,000 m² (two football fields) large artwork by Arno Coenen and Iris Roskam, entitled "Hoorn des Overvloeds".
