The sculpture depicts a contemplative seated man in a suit, who has laid his cap (skipper’s cap / worker’s cap) next to him on the bench. Jan Haas was known for his powerful, figurative style and his fondness for portraying the ‘ordinary person’ — such as laborers, rural workers, dockers, fishing figures and everyday citizens at rest. The work exudes characteristic calm, melancholy and human dignity. About the artist (Jan Haas 1941–2018): Jan Harm Cornelis (Jan) Haas was a leading Dutch sculptor, painter and graphic artist. He lived and worked much of his life in Vlissingen and was a prominent member of the Zeeuwse Kunstkring. Haas is known for his expressive modeling technique with rough, angular bronze forms. His work is in numerous museum and private collections, and he created several well-known monumental works in public spaces (such as the Watersnoodmonument 'Houen jongens' in Colijnsplaat and the Laborers in Sint Anna ter Muiden).
