Usuki gets sculpture of Dutch ship
OITA, Japan - Dutch sculptor Louise Helianthe van Meurs (L) presents Usuki, Oita Prefecture, Mayor Kunitoshi Goto (R) and Toru Matsuzaki, president of the Usuki Junior Chamber of Commerce and Industry, on April 18 with a sculpture she made of the Liefde, a Dutch ship which exactly 400 years ago ran ashore in Usuki's harbor. The event is largely credited with opening ties between Japan and the Netherlands.
