"Sculptuur van de Wetenschap" (Sculpture of Science) is a 1876 marble sculpture by Sophus Williams (1835-1900). The image is a stereoscopic photograph, showing the sculpture in two different angles. The sculpture depicts a female figure in a flowing robe, holding a book in her left hand, representing the power of knowledge and learning. The work is an example of Neoclassical style, influenced by the ideals of Ancient Greece and Rome, demonstrating the enduring appeal of classical themes in the 19th century.
