Humboldt's Silhouette in Monticello (Charlottesville, Virginia)

Monticello is the estate in which Thomas Jefferson spent most time of his retirement. It's located in Charlottesville, Virginia. The South Square Room of his residence shows a number of silhouettes, one of them showing Alexander von Humboldt. There is also one of Aimé Bonpland albeit located in a different room.

Alexander von Humboldt Statue in Philadelphia

Here is a description:

The statue of Alexander von Humboldt by Frederick Drake, erected by German-American citizens now stands along West River Drive along the Schuylkill River south of the Belmont Pumping Station, near a more famous statue of Saint George and the Dragon which is not from the Centennial.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a good photo of the statue yet. However, this is another reference.

Humboldt Monument in Chicago

Just to add to previous entries: I've discured yet another Humboldt monument. It's located in Chicago. Here is two references; later, I'll add them to the map and the blog entry below:

• http://www.explorechicago.org/city/en/things_see_do/attractions/park_district/alexander_von_humboldt.html

Naturally, I'm interested in getting similar references to other Alexander von Humboldt statues / monuments.

Alexander-von-Humboldt-Forschungsstelle

The Alexander-von-Humboldt-Forschungsstelle provides a good collection of material and references. Especially interesting for me is the chronology of Alexander von Humboldt.
