Luiz Gama, Bronze memorials and busts in São Paulo, Brazil.
Multiple bronze sculptures and memorial sites across São Paulo honor Luiz Gama, a Brazilian lawyer who fought against slavery in the 19th century.
The monuments commemorate Luiz Gama, who secured freedom for over 500 enslaved people and became one of the three highest-paid lawyers in São Paulo.
The memorials represent Gama's impact on Brazilian society as a lawyer, journalist, and writer who advanced the cause of abolition through legal channels.
Visitors can find the main memorial bust at Largo do Arouche in central São Paulo, near the intersection of major public transportation routes.
The bronze sculptures depict Gama wearing formal 19th-century attire, reflecting his status as the first black lawyer to practice in Brazilian courts.
