The Stichting Homo-Monument in Amsterdam, dedicated in 1987. This public sculpture "commemorates all women and men who were ever oppressed and persecuted because of their homosexuality."
Designed by Karin Daan, the sculpture consists of a gaint pink granite triangle, 107 feet on each side, containing three smaller triangles. One points to the Anne Frank House, one points to the headquarters of the COC, the Dutch gay rights organization, the third extends like a wharf into the Keizersgracht canal.
