Abstract

The article focuses on the reconstruction of the steeple of Eusebius Church in Arnhem, Netherlands by architect Theo Verlaan. Sculptor Hendrik Vreeling suggests that they imitate the medieval builders and carve unconventional gargoyles to surround the steeple. Verlaan agrees with Vreeling suggestion to carve cartoon characters. In response, the Netherlands Christian Women's Association of Arnhem demands town officials to defend the dignity of the steeple.
