Murales de Eva Perón del Edificio del Ministerio de Obras Públicas

The murals are two steel-framed portraits on the facade of the Ministry building, each measuring approximately 31 meters tall and 24 meters wide. The south portrait shows Eva smiling, while the north one depicts her speaking, and both are illuminated at night with LED lights in warm tones and Argentine flag colors.

The site became a gathering place in 1951 when over two million people assembled to request Eva's nomination as vice president during a major public event. This massive assembly marked a turning point in her public recognition and support.

The south face shows Eva smiling and expressing compassion, while the north face depicts her speaking and symbolizes her strength. Together, these two portrayals reflect how people remember her in different moments of her life.

The works are clearly visible from street level and can be viewed during daytime or at night when illuminated, offering different impressions. It helps to walk around the ministry's surroundings, as the best views come from different positions that reveal varying perspectives.

The portraits contain a hidden detail indicating the time of death, visible only under specific lighting conditions. This subtle element allows attentive visitors to discover an additional layer of artistic intention.
