Statues In The Park (40)- Bryant Park NYC This monument depicts Benito Juárez (1806–1872), one of Mexico’s most loved political figures and the first Mexican figure to be commemorated with a city monument. Mexican sculptor Moises Cabrera Orozco (b. 1936) created the piece, which portrays Juárez leaning on a tablet with his quotation, “Respect for the rights of others is peace,” inscribed in both Spanish and English. The granite pedestal was designed by TEN Arquitectos. The monument, dedicated on October 9, 2004, was sponsored by the Mexican state of Oaxaca on behalf of the Mexican Government with additional support from the Mexican Trade Center. With the addition of Juárez, seven sculptures of Latin American leaders now overlook the (6th Ave) Avenue of the Americas
