After a two weeks’ maintenance programme at Keppel Verolme, Royal Caribbean International’s Oasis of the Seas departed Rotterdam cruise for Fort Lauderdale on October 14.
Two weeks earlier the Rotterdam Market Hall opened its doors to show off the biggest artwork in the world. Entitled Horn of Plenty, the gigantic, brightly colored painting measures over 36,000ft2 and spans the entire interior of the indoor market De Markthal. This provides yet another attraction possibility for passengers.
“You feel just like an insect standing underneath,” explained artist Arno Coenen. “That’s the idea behind it – that childlike sense of wonder you had when you read Alice in Wonderland.” Adorned with giant fish, fruit and vegetables, and the occasional mushroom or stray shrimp, the mega-mural depicts the products for sale on the market floor.
