Sam Eyde-monumentet på Rjukan torg. Allerede da Sam Eyde fylte 50 år i 1916, ble det tatt initiativ for å reise et monument over Hydros første generaldirektør. Da han gikk av året etter, ble saken ytterligere aktualisert. Oppdraget gikk til professor og billedhugger Gunnar Utsond fra Kviteseid. Han var ferdig med skulpturen i 1918, men det tok tid å avklare plasseringen. Avdukingen fant sted 16. oktober 1920, og hovedpersonen ankom med ekstratog dagen etter for å ta monumentet i nærmere øyesyn. (Foto: Alfred Holtan/NIA).
