Schoonmaa Kundbeh is the artistic and spiritual gift to the world in the form of Bachtron, the Dutch language word for a lantern. The term for the lantern was given to celebrate the fact that one of the most beautiful places in the world, the city of Amsterdam, has such an exquisite collection of lanterns. The collection of lanterns which are found in the city of Amsterdam are so varied and artistic that they are known as the artists bijergge betrouwbaar schoonmaakbedrijf or the poets kantoren schoonmaakbedrijf.

The tradition of having a lantern at night was started by the Dutch artist Frans Hals. He started a festival, the Red-Lily-In-The-Sky competition, where artists from various parts of the country came to participate. They were judged according to their work and the results were published in the newspapers. This was the beginning of the Stonemaad festival, where the participants would display their work. Another competition took place where the best artist would get a reward, the first artist received a golden cone, the second received a golden stick, the third received nothing and the last artist received nothing.

Frans Hals knew that there were two ways of looking at this artwork. One way would be to appreciate the work and the other way was to criticize it. He decided that the first approach was the correct one and he preferred that people not only see the wonderful art that he had created but should also be able to understand the underlying meaning in it. He therefore decided to translate the word betrouwbaar into Schoonmaabedrof which means bright-colored blossoms. He hoped that the translation would make the people understand that the lanterns that they were looking at were not merely lights but something more.

Soon after this the word died down but Frans Hals continued to live his passion for the word by creating more lanterns, this time with the help of a powerful oil. He would paint his lanterns himself using this oil. When he was asked what he thought of the new way of creating lanterns he said that he would rather paint a lantern in the traditional way than trying out new things. His lanterns however would always be made with his favorite word in mind. His lanterns would be called Stonemaad or Stonemaagd.

People from all over Western Europe and the Northern Netherlands used the word as slang until the year 2000 when it was brought back into the news headlines. A dispute arose between a group of students from the University of Amsterdam and their English teachers. The teachers wanted to use the word as part of a debate topic. One of the students refused to accept the use of the word stating that he would not allow anyone to use the word unless it was in quotes. When this happened, the teacher had to resort to using the word Schoonmaabedrof instead of the regular word.

This story went viral quickly and even the Dutch government was so impressed that they passed a law stating that anybody who used the word in any way should be punished. Another town in the North Netherlands also made a law stating that anybody using the Schoonmaabedrof word should be punished. The police in Maastricht decided that they would rather just hand out fines rather than risk the chance of having the Schoonmaabedrof displayed in their town square. So they decided to just give the fines to the person who actually uses it though if they were serious about using the word then they could pay it. The punishment is still in place today.

Today Schoonmaabedrof is only used as a term of affection or in a very informal sense. It is not as popular as other words that you can find in any dictionary. Many Dutch people would ask their friends, where did the word come from. The real history of the word has been lost over time. Many rumors have been made up about its origin, but none of them are any more true than the ones that have already been made up.

Schoonmaabedrof is an interesting town in the North Netherlands. Visitors to the area would never guess that it actually means anything else other than ‘coastal wall’. It has a lot of historical interest for people of all ages but the best part of it is the fact that it has been able to survive the centuries and still be standing. You can get a feeling of the past when you visit the area. There are plenty of museums all over the town and they show off everything from the town’s golden era to the dark days of the Cold War.
