Equestrian statue of Francisco Pizarro, Bronze equestrian statue in Trujillo, Spain.
The bronze monument depicts Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro mounted on a horse, dressed in combat armor with a sword.
Created by American sculptor Charles Cary Rumsey in 1910, the statue was first exhibited at the Grand Palais in Paris before its installation in 1929.
The sculpture represents one of three identical bronze statues located in Buffalo, Trujillo, and Lima, marking Pizarro's connection to these cities.
The statue stands in front of the central plaza, measuring approximately 1.80 meters in height and resting on its original pedestal.
The statue's design includes specific details like a feathered helmet and large horse, which differ from historical evidence of conquistador equipment.
