http://dbpedia.org/ontology/abstract La statue de Jan van Riebeeck située sur HLa statue de Jan van Riebeeck située sur Heerengracht Street au centre de la ville du Cap, Cap-Occidental en Afrique du Sud, rend hommage à Jan van Riebeeck (1619-1677), administrateur néerlandais qui fonda en 1652 au Cap, pour le compte de la Compagnie néerlandaise des Indes orientales, la première implantation européenne en Afrique du Sud. Commandée, financée et offerte par Cecil Rhodes à la ville du Cap, la statue fut sculptée par John Tweed et érigée près du bord du mer du Cap en mai 1899.ée près du bord du mer du Cap en mai 1899. , The statue of Jan van Riebeeck lies alongsThe statue of Jan van Riebeeck lies alongside the statue of Maria van Riebeck on Adderley Street in Cape Town, South Africa. Both statues stand with their backs to the sea looking south to Table Mountain. The statue was donated by Cecil Rhodes to the city of Cape Town. He paid the Scottish sculptor John Tweed £1,000 for the work, partly on the condition that the statue not show Tweed's name and be larger than life-size. The statue lies on a Cape granite pedestal 4¼ m high designed by an architect friend of Tweed's. This further inflated the cost. On 18 May 1899, Cape Town Mayor Thomas Ball unveiled the bronze statue in the presence of the entire City Council, national politicians, and members of the public, but in the absence of Rhodes, then sojourning in Europe. Rhodes chose to situate the statue where Van Riebeeck set foot ashore. Due to the development of the harbour and the city's growth, the statue has been overshadowed by skyscrapers. Over time, a large roundabout was developed at the site, once called Heerengracht, and in 1969, a statue of Maria van Riebeeck was laid to the right of her husband's. There is no image that can be said to certainly depict the founder of the Cape refreshment station. In the statue, Van Riebeeck's sword is sheathed, and he carries his walking stick in his right hand. The dress in the statue is historically inaccurate. Overhanging shoulder straps were out of fashion in the mid-17th century, and knee breeches and the jacker Van Riebeeck is wearing only became popular after his departure for Java. Hat feathers were in fashion, but are missing in the statue. Each year on 6 April, Founders Day, wreaths were laid at the statues of Jan and Maria van Riebeeck. In his poem, "Oor monnemente gepraat" ("speaking of monuments"), Peter Blum writes: here is Jan van Riebeeck, very handsome in his plus fours; ....
