Monument to Bartolomé Mitre, Bronze and marble monument in Recoleta, Argentina.

The Monument to Bartolomé Mitre features a central bronze figure mounted on red granite with Carrara marble allegorical figures at its base.

Italian sculptors David Calandra and Eduardo Rubino completed this memorial in 1927 to honor Bartolomé Mitre, who served as President of Argentina from 1862 to 1868.

The monument combines Italian sculptural techniques with Argentine historical elements, representing Mitre's roles as president, military leader, and founder of La Nación newspaper.

Located between the British Embassy and National Library, the monument is accessible through multiple public transportation options on Avenida Del Libertador.

The red granite base supports detailed Carrara marble carvings that depict different aspects of Mitre's contributions to Argentine society and politics.
