Original artwork description:

For the last 20 years I have lived in the Netherlands where cheese is a way of life. The Netherlands, with a population of 17 million and an area of just 42,000 sq km, much of it under sea level, is the 2nd largest cheese exporter in the world ($4.2 billion, just behind Germany $4.8). Cheese is so celebrated in the Netherlands it is treated like a member of the family - it is either jong (young), jong belegen (youthful middle aged) belegen (middle aged) extra belegen (late middle aged) or oud (geriatric). In the Netherlands they build dykes out of cheese. Old ladies crochet cheese bonnets on their laps on cold winter evenings. Young children learn to eat cheese before they learn to ride bicycles. Dutch cryptocurrency mines cheese. There is a Minister For Cheese in the Dutch government. The Netherlands is cheese. Cheese is the Netherlands.

UK buyers please be aware: since Brexit there may be additional fees - import VAT - to pay. This is usually about 5%.
