La Victoria del Viento, Public monument in Pachuca, Mexico.
The 20-meter-tall monument features a central female figure holding a torch, accompanied by representations of independence heroes and bronze reliefs.
Created in 2010 to commemorate 200 years of Mexican independence, the monument includes sculptures of Miguel Hidalgo, José María Morelos, Ignacio López Rayón, and Andrés Quintana Roo.
The monument draws inspiration from a Mexican legend about a woman who sacrificed herself for her land by falling in love with the wind.
The Plaza Bicentenario, where the monument stands, extends across 22,500 square meters and remains accessible throughout the year for visitors.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the statue received a face mask installation, transforming it into a symbol of public health awareness.
