La lechera, Bronze sculpture in Plaza Trascorrales, Oviedo, Spain.
The bronze figure depicts a woman holding a milk vessel accompanied by a donkey carrying milk containers positioned directly on the ground level.
The 1996 sculpture honors the female milk sellers who distributed fresh dairy products throughout Oviedo streets until the 1970s.
The statue represents a vital part of Asturian heritage by portraying traditional village clothing and the tools used in milk distribution.
Located at coordinates 43°21′39″N 5°50′38″W, the sculpture stands in Plaza Trascorrales near the former fish market building.
The statue forms part of an urban art collection that transformed Oviedo from commemorating notable figures to celebrating everyday professions.
