Monument of Vladimir Nabokov in Montreux. December 2006.

According to [1] archive copy at the Wayback Machine

"1961 Après le succès de « Lolita », le romancier d'origine russe Vladimir Nabokov prend ses quartiers dans l'aile du Cygne, où il vivra jusqu'à sa mort en 1977. En 1999, le Palace fête le centenaire de la naissance de Vladimir Nabokov en présence de son fils Dimitri et une délégation russe de Moscou. Une statue en bronze de l'écrivain est offerte au Palace par l'artiste Alexandre Rukavishnikov et le maire de Moscou Yu Luzhkov."

According to [2]

"After the recital (a young Petersburgian pianist, Margarita Chablovskaia, playing Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff and Wienyavsky to the accompaniment of a violonist (whose name didn't make it to the program), Dmitri Nabokov unveiled the statue of his father, seeming quite satisfied with the Rukavishnikovs' (father & son) work, despite the knickerbockers."
