English: The Holland Monument was put up in Wellington's Bolton Street cemetery, near former premier Richard Seddon's tomb, in 1937. The Holland memorial was the work of the Auckland sculptor Richard Gross. The nude male figure represents emancipated youth, looking upwards to higher things. Beneath are two figures, one male, the other female, which symbolise primitive humanity struggling out of the primeval slime.
