A monument to Azerbaijan's poet and ghazal singer Aliagha Vahid was first proposed in 1989.

The process of bronze founding was conducted in St. Petersburg, USSR. The statute's height was previously measured as 5 meters, but it was later decided to reduce its size due to financial problems, now standing at 3 meters tall. Although the monument is made in the form of the poet's head, in fact, it is a multiplot sculpture sample. The statue was officially inaugurated on 27 October 1990 in the garden nor far from the Muslim Magomayev Azerbaijan State Academic Philharmonic Hall.[1][3] In 2008 the statute was moved from the spot it had occupied since 1990. Its new location is Icherisheher.
