The image of De Dijkgravin by Mariette Coppens refers to the novel by Marie Gevers. It tells the story of a girl who, after her father's death, takes over his position as a dike earl near Temse.

De Dijkgravin is there to welcome everyone on the dike and to see to it that no one "digs in the dike 😜". A typical stop for many cyclists.
