Brian Becroft 2012 - a year that may be not what it seems...The Curious Image - Jeroen Verhoeven"...whilst from another [angle] it's clearly a futuristic piano fallen prey to vicious dissection.""When the work is viewed from certain angles, two silhouettes can be seen depicting Verhoeven's twin brother Joep and Judith de Graauw"

For some reason, a piano stool isn't the first thing that comes to mind, despite the legs. "Stool", yes. "Piano Stool" nope!!
