Monumento al Labrador, Bronze monument in Logroño, Spain.
The Monumento al Labrador is a bronze sculpture in Logroño showing a worker wearing a beret and holding a hoe over his shoulder. The composition includes two rectangular monoliths with carved reliefs positioned behind the main figure.
The work was created by artist Alejandro Rubio Dalmati and unveiled in 1967 to honor agricultural workers. It was among the first sculptures in Spain dedicated to this subject.
The two rectangular monoliths behind the figure display reliefs that show how farm work connects with the seasons and nature. This reflects the region's traditional way of life and its bond with the land.
The monument is located at the intersection of Avenida de Jorge Vigón and Calle Vara de Rey with wheelchair accessibility for visitors. The site is easy to reach and well integrated into the city's street layout.
The artist donated the work to the city while the local government funded half of the installation costs. This partnership shows how the artist and community came together on the project.
