A Francesc Layret, Bronze and stone sculpture in Sant Antoni, Barcelona, Spain
The monument features a central female figure holding a torch, accompanied by representations of workers, farmers, and a woman with child.
Created by Frederic Marès in 1936, the monument was removed during the Spanish Civil War and reinstalled at its original location in 1977.
The monument stands as a tribute to Francesc Layret, a labor lawyer who defended workers' rights until his assassination in 1920.
Located in Plaça Goya, the stone and bronze monument extends 280 meters through the Sant Antoni neighborhood of Barcelona.
The bronze medallion embedded in the stone pedestal captures the likeness of Layret while exemplifying the Noucentisme artistic style of Catalonia.
