El beso
El Beso (the kiss) is a large
sculpture in the "Love Park"
by the Pacific Ocean in the
Miraflores district of Lima. It
depicts the sculptor, Victor
Delfín, and his wife kissing.
According to local accounts, the mayor of the district holds (or used to hold) a competition for the
couple who could sustain the longest kiss, and this sculpture celebrates this. The park is supposedly
inspired by Antoni Gaudí's Parc Guell in Barcelona.
The statue
"Idyll" or
"Eternal
Kiss" was
surrounded
by
controversy
before he
finally could
"rest" in San
Francisco
Square in
down town,
São Paulo,
Brasil.
Located in front of the Law
school is an interesting statue
known as Idilio or Beijo Eterno
(Eternal Kiss or Idyll statue),
which many found it immoral
and caused a bit of
controversy throughout the
1950s & 1960s when the
statue was placed in various
areas of Sao Paulo before
finding its final resting spot in
front of the Law school.
This statue depicts one of the
poems of Olav Bilaspur, which
is about the love between a
young Frenchman and an
indigenous women. This
bronze statue was built in
1920 by Swedish sculptor
William Zadig.
Again withdrawn,
the piece was
placed on storage
until 1965 in the
City hall.

Installed in the
Largo do Cambuci,
villagers held a
petition for it to be
withdrawn. The
following year, the
mayor Faria Lima
decided to put it
near the building of
the Getúlio Vargas
Foundation,. Soon
after an alderman
complained the
Tribune House,
saying that the
statue was
obscene.
