Monumento a la Revolucion, San Salvador
Monumento a la Revolucion is located at the entrance of the Museum of Art of El Salvador. It is dedicated to one of the country's central events: the revolution that began in 1948 and culminated in the Constitution in 1950. The monument was erected for the president Lieutenant Colonel Oscar Osorio, who worked in the period between 1950 and 1956. The monument was handmade by a group of artists but the monument was designed by Violet and Claudio Cevallos, who decided on an image of a nude man looking to the sky with extended hands. Locals call this monument "naked man."
