The sculptor and painter who made in 1341 AD. Hassan Fajdankoush, an Iranian mountain climber, proposed the idea of ​​building this statue in 1958 AD. Colonel Bayat, who was in charge of the army’s mountain training center at that time, made preparations for its construction, and the cost of 10,000 tomans [one Iranian currency] was borne by the municipality of Tehran at that time. Interestingly, Amir Shah Jademi, who was an army sergeant and instructor of Iranian mountaineering and skiing, was offered as a model for this statue. The reason for this choice was related to his cooperation in rescuing the passengers of an American plane that crashed in Iran, and John F. Kennedy, the President of the United States at the time, awarded her a medal in 1961
