Erasmus Statue
Erasmus stands tall and proud in the middle of a city square, symbolizing intellectual discourse’s ability to bring people together across social divides. His statue has become an inspiration for artists around the world as an icon for peace.
Hendrick de Keyser unveiled this bronze statue by honoring an early humanist scholar instead of honoring either royal or military figures in 1622. It marked the first public statue to honor an intellectual within Europe without honoring either royalty or military figures.
The statue depicts Erasmus turning the page of a book, symbolizing his devotion to knowledge. Additionally, this statue represents his commitment to peace and tolerance – although some believe that its spirit haunts it.
