A rare long bench (the second of two we are selling) designed by Dom Hans van der Laan and executed by Jan de Jong for the Sint-Willibroduskerk in Almelo.
The architect Jan de Jong who worked closely together with Dom Hans van der Laan was responsible for the design of the church and its interior. They created an outstanding body of work ,very much defining what is called now the Dutch Bossche School style.
The artist Wim van Hoof was responsible for the entire colour scheme of the church and its interior (including this bench).
The bench was purchased after the demolition of the church in 2005 and is in a very nice original condition.
Slight surface wear only and a few chips and signs of age and use as would be expected.
