The German boy and Dutch girl characters were a collaborative art piece meant to symbolize the cooperative relationship that the communities of [[PlaceNL]] and [[PlaceDE]] developed in the course of [[r/place_2023]]. It was completed around 18:00 GMT on July 25th, and remained until the [[The_Great_Whiteout|Great Whiteout]].

==Collaboration==
During the third edition of r/Place, the communities of PlaceDE and PlaceNL had collaborated on several other pieces before these characters came about. See the [[German-Dutch Yin-yang]], the [[German-Dutch Bicycle]], the [[German-Dutch Poland Balls]], and the [[German-Dutch Picture Frame]]. This art can be considered the culmination of that mutually beneficial partnership; only being completed shortly before the whiteout of 2023.
