The Leif Eriksson Monument in Reykjavík, Iceland, is a statue of the Norse explorer Leif Erikson created by American artist Alexander Stirling Calder. Commissioned by the United States government as a gift to Iceland for the 1,000th anniversary of the Alþingi in 1930, the statue was unveiled in 1932 atop a hill overlooking the city. A second casting of the statue stands at the Mariners' Museum in Virginia, and the image of the statue has been widely used in various media and on stamps and coins. It's a cool tribute to Leif Erikson that's become quite famous!
