Monumento a Juana Azurduy, Bronze independence monument at Plaza del Correo, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Monumento a Juana Azurduy is a bronze sculpture depicting a woman warrior holding a sword while carrying a child on her back. The work stands at Plaza del Correo and presents this figure as both mother and armed fighter.
The sculpture was unveiled in 2015 and honors a woman who participated in 19th-century independence movements across South America. Its construction brought together nations from the region in a collaborative effort.
The figure wears clothing and a carrying cloth that reflect indigenous Andean traditions. These details connect the representation to the daily life of the region's native peoples.
The memorial stands near the Centro Cultural Kirchner in downtown Buenos Aires. It is easily accessible on foot and can be viewed from the outside at any time.
The base of the sculpture uses architectural forms inspired by an ancient Andean civilization. This choice links modern art to the region's heritage and historical past.
