Although its founding stone was laid in 1910 at the intersection of avenidas Del Libertador and Saiento in Palermo, Buenos Aires, due to a series of misfortunes the statue was not unveiled until 1927: the first two sculptors to work on the monument died; there were strikes at the Carrera marble quarries; in 1914, when part of the work was already in situ a storm broke off the left arm of the figure of the Republic; and in 1916, the ship carrying materials for the monument sank and the replacement materials were held up in customs.
