Monument a Mossèn Jacint Verdaguer
Monument a Mossèn Jacint Verdaguer, Noucentista monument in Dreta de l'Eixample, Barcelona, Spain
The twenty-meter stone column displays a bronze statue of Jacint Verdaguer at its summit, surrounded by six cypress trees at its base.
The monument construction started in 1914 and was officially unveiled in 1924, with King Alfonso XIII and dictator Primo de Rivera attending the ceremony.
The monument features three stone figures representing different types of poetry, along with bas-reliefs illustrating scenes from Verdaguer's epic poem L'Atlantida.
The monument stands at the intersection of Passeig de Sant Joan and Avinguda Diagonal, next to Verdaguer metro station serving lines L4 and L5.
The circular stone balustrade integrates natural elements with sculptural work created by brothers Miquel and Llucià Oslé, measuring two by six meters each.
