Description
English: Top of the monument to Cervantes (1925–30, 1956–57) at the Plaza de España (Spain Square) in Madrid. Five female figures, representing the five Continents, read Don Quixote while holding up a globe, symbolizing thus the universal dissemination of the novel. These sculptures were made by Lorenzo Coullaut Valera (1876–1932) between 1925 and 1930. At the left, Europe and the Americas read together. At the right, Asia. Below the cornice, Cervantes' (left) and Madrid's (right) coats of arms.
