High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! There are many landmarks in Buenos Aires, Argentina some of which are of considerable historical or artistic interest.The "Monumento a La Carta Magna y las Cuatro Regiones Argentinas" is situated in the Sarmiento y Libertador part of the Palermo district. It was raised by the Spanish community in 1910 for the Centennial of the Revolution of May, and it is commonly referred to as the "Spanish Monument". The colossal work is 24.5 meters high, created in marble from Carrara and brass by the Spanish sculptor Agustí Querol Subirats. In March 1916, the ocean liner Príncipe de Asturias from Barcelona was wrecked 90 miles from Rio de Janeiro. In this accident, more than 450 people died and the load of marble ornaments and brass that composed the statuary of the monument was lost in the depths of the ocean. The following year, replicas were requested for those lost in the shipwreck. Finally, May 25 1927 the count of Amalfi, on behalf of the kingAlfonso XIII, made a symbolic delivery of the work to the president Marcelo Torcuato de Alvear.
