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.
