L'estàtua original va ser realitzada per l'escultor Guillaume Charlier d'Ixelles l'any 1854.

Sterken Dries era el sobrenom del conegut pescador de Blankenberg Jurewyt Andries que va viure des de 1818 fins a 1896. Dries només tenia por d'una persona. De la seva dona "Blondina" En llenguatge comú s'anomenava "Blondje". De petit, lligat a la cistella a l'esquena del seu pare, va anar a vendre peix a Wenduine i De Haan. Abans, el pare caminava per la platja. En arribar a De Haan , va trobar que havia perdut el seu fill pel camí.

Andries va trobar la seva casa pel seu compte ! Per això es deia un noi fort. D'aquí el nom "Sterken Dries.

També porta el mateix nom un dels vaixells salvavides del Servei de Rescat Voluntari de Blankenbergse.
