hugo de groot monument印象

This monument towers the centre of town opposite some great landmarks to check out. Whilst in town make sure to head up to the top of the church tower (closed on windy days).

胡果·格老秀斯是著名荷兰法学家，称为国际法之父。他的雕像位于出生地代尔夫特的新教堂前广场上，双手拿着大书，迈出一步左脚看着远处，好像有靠法律走进新时代的感觉。他也安放在此教堂里，最好顺便参拜一下。

It's easy to take in this statue, on Delft's market square, between the new church and old town hall. Hugo de Groot is often considered the father of international, or sometimes maritime, law.The statue is 'just' a statue, though.Try to visit on Thursdays, when the market square is filled with stalls selling excellent cheeses, groceries, and your regular market wares.

Loved sitting in the square watching Delft go by. The day we were there a couple of different big bands were playing and was very pleasant in the sun. Enjoyed watching a pigeon stand on the head of the statue for a very long time - hours - surveying all around him - not in the least perturbed by the human activity. Always wonder what the pigeons make of their spectacular roost. Seems a shame statues such as these become that as they are intended to honour great men - hardly ever women!

The area that this monument is in is truly charming! The monument itself is very well done and worth taken a break to look at. The architecture in this area is lovely, and really sets of this lovely statue. There are plenty of charming shops and restaurants in this area.

Hugo de Groot, also known as Hugo Grotius, was an eminent legal author, theorist and philosopher born in 1583 in Delft, Netherlands, who lived until the mid 17th Century. He is widely considered to be a founder of international and maritime law.The statue which commemorates him is situated in front of the Nieuwe Kerk in the vast main square of Delft. It is a very impressive and imposing structure. Thankfully, when I took the attached photograph, the obligatory pigeon or seagull which normally sits on the heads of statues was for once missing. Possibly it had gone for lunch?

It is important to remember the people of the past that had such a huge impact on the way we are able to live today. Hugo Grotius was one of the founders of international and maritime law. With his ideas he broke the status quo on the seas and opened up the way for the Dutch to go on into their golden age. Today this statue and the Tomb of Hugo Grotius are a kind of pilgrims destination for people from all over the world who are involved in the practice of law. There is always the chance to strike up an interesting conversation with the people who are visiting. A must visit location for people who love politics and law.

Hugo de Groot or Hugo Grotius is considered to be the founder of international law. He believed that arbitration and discussions were the best way to prevent wars between countries and his ideas and influences can be seen in the form of the international peace and arbitration courts in Den Haag. The statue erected in the main market square is very impressive and shows Hugo de Groot in the right vein. I feel some more description of Hugo de Groot, the person and also some details about his work should be mentioned on a plaque around the statue as many tourists do not know about him, which is quite a shame actually.

A beautiful statute of a great expert in law. Of interest is the little memorial plate immediately north of the stature, where DSC ("Delftsch Studenten Corps", an important student fraternity) listed the "motto's" they used since 1993 for the celebration of each of their 5-year anniversaries.
