Monument to Vuk Karadžić, Bronze monument at King Alexander Boulevard, Belgrade, Serbia.

The 7.25-meter-tall bronze sculpture depicts Vuk Karadžić standing with a book, marking the intersection of King Alexander Boulevard and Ruzveltova Street.

The Serbian Literary Society initiated the monument's construction in 1920, with public donations funding the project until its completion in 1937.

The monument honors Vuk Karadžić, who reformed Serbian literary language and standardized the Serbian Cyrillic alphabet during the nineteenth century.

The sculptor Đorđe Jovanović created this monument at the end of his career, incorporating both classical and modern elements in the design.
