History

The sculptor Luigi Secchi, a close friend of the painter, was commissioned to create the monument, but only made the model. After the sculptor's death in 1921, thanks to a petition created by his student, Piero Da Verno, the statue was erected. The monument was unveiled on April 4, 1927. The statue depicts Bianchi, sitting with easel in one hand.

gollark: The current process is kind of crazy in my opinion.
