"Hæders Minde for d. 2 April 1801" is an engraving by J.F. Clemens, a Danish artist active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The artwork, housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a commemorative monument with two draped female figures flanking a central urn. The inscription "Hæders Minde for d. 2 April 1801" (Honor Memorial for April 2, 1801) suggests a tribute to a historical event or individual. Children scattering flowers at the base add a poignant touch to the scene. The engraving's detailed linework and classical aesthetic reflect the artistic sensibilities of the era.
