Monumento a Francisco Narciso Laprida, Historical monument in San José de Jachal, Argentina.
The white Carrara marble monument represents Francisco Narciso Laprida and stands in the central Plaza General San Martín of San José de Jachal.
The monument was initially placed in the Hall of Lost Steps at the National Congress building in 1907 before being relocated to San Juan Province in 1930.
Sculptor Lola Mora created this marble piece as part of the Four Presidents Collection, depicting Laprida without his later mustache and with detailed clothing features.
The monument underwent restoration work in 2005 to remove synthetic enamel paint layers and reinforce its base against frequent seismic activity.
The sculpture survived the 1944 San Juan earthquake while located in Mayo Park before its final transfer to San José de Jachal in 1951.
