ONBEKENDEN GEVEN OPDRACHT VOOR BEELD VOOR DE SPELEN

Een nog onbekende liefdadigheidschinstelling heeft opdracht gegeven voor het vervaardigen van een metalen beeld in gelijkenis van het op de komende Zomer Spelen te introduceeren officiele symbool. De Antwerpsche ijzersmid Hendrik van Waalen bevestigde de opdracht enkele maanden geleden ontvangen te hebben, maar wilde niet meer vrij laten dan "Wij wensen oprichter van het International Comité hiermee te eeren voor zijn bijdrage aan wereldvrede."

Het symbool dat met de Zomer Spelen van dit jaar geintroduceerd zal worden bestaat uit vijf geschakelde ringen die de vij wereld delen als één vereenigde wereld uitbeelden; een verenigde wereld waarin elk uitsluitend ten strijde gaat in sportieve competitie. Of de ringen in het beeld aan elkaar gesmeed worden is onduidelijk. Dhr. Van Waalen liet enkel vallen dat elke ring een inscriptie krijgt. Over de inscripties zelf zei Dhr. Van Waalen slechts "Het is de wens van mijn opdrachtgevers om de teksten ter verrassing te bewaren."

De oprichter van de spelen was de sleutelpersoon voor het in 1894 in ere herstellen der spelen uit de klassieke oudheid, bijna 2000 jaar nadat deze buiten de wet gesteld werden door de Griekse keizer Theodosius. Hij ontwierp het symbool al in 1913, maar politieke de consequenties van de Groote Oorlog hebben de introductie vertraagd tot de komende Zomer Spelen. Het Internationaal Comité zegt geen verband te hebben met de opdracht voor het beeld.

English translation by Canzonett:

UNKNOWN PERSON COMMISSIONS SCULPTURE FOR THE GAMES

A still unknown charity organisation has commissioned the production of a metal sculpture in resemblance of the offical symbol that is to be introduced during the upcoming Summer Games. Iron Smith Hendrik van Waalen from Antwerp confirmed to have received the order some months ago, but didn't want to tell more than "With this, we wish to honour the founder of the International Committee for his contribution to world peace."

The symbol that shall be introduced with this year's Summer Games consists of five interlocking rings representing the five continents as ONE united world; one united world where everyone only fights in athletic competition. It is not clear whether the rings in the sculpture have been forged to each other. Mr. van Waalen mentioned that each ring is to be engraved with an inscription. About the inscriptions themselves Mr. van Waalen simply said: "It is my client's wish to keep the texts a surprise."

De founder of the games was the key person for the revivel of the games known from the ancient world in 1894, almost 2000 years after these were banned by the Greek emperor Theodosius. He (WHO? THEODOSIUS?) designed the symbol already in 1913, but the political consequences of the Great War have delayed its introduction until the upcoming Summer Games. The International Committe claims to have to connection to the order of the sculpture.
