Magdalena,

The
three statues are work of the Mexican sculptor Julián Martínez and were
cast on request of a
group of citizens in Tucson who formed a committee to head a project
called “Three Statues for Three Centuries.”
This time the sensitive portrayal of Kino on horseback would be
cast in bronze for three places – Tucson, Arizona - U.S.A.,
mission territory of Padre Kino,
Magdalena,
Sonora - Mexico site of his death and burial and Segno,
Trentino - Italia, his birth village to celebrate the 300th
anniversary of the arrival of Padre Kino in Pimería. |
