La Puerta Historiada, Bronze monument at Biblioteca del Docente, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The bronze gate measures 4 meters in height and 2.5 meters in width, weighing 1200 kilograms with intricate relief panels depicting educational scenes.
Sculptor Arturo Dresco created this monument in 1933 to honor Argentine school teachers, following an initiative proposed by José María Ramos Mejía in 1909.
Eight detailed panels portray teaching activities across different regions of Argentina, featuring historical figures like Mariano Moreno and Manuel Belgrano.
The monument stands inside the Biblioteca del Docente at Entre Ríos Avenue 1349, following its restoration and relocation from the exterior in 2013.
The gate incorporates native flora and fauna elements alongside 14 shields representing Argentine provinces that existed during its creation in 1933.
