New Liberation Day work for newspaper De Telegraaf

May 07, 2020

For a longer photo series I’m working on, I am following Bergen mayor Peter Rehwinkel. A small part of the series about how COVID19 is impacting different individuals in the small coastal municipality of Bergen was picked up by the most-read newspaper of The Netherlands, ‘De Telegraaf’. In their ‘Stan Huygens Journaal’ about politics, they wrote about how mayor Rehwinkel handed over the first of many ‘Freedom Meal Boxes’ to the elderly Cees Mooy, as part of the yearly (but due to COVID19 alternative) Liberation Day celebrations.
