Along the Malecón, Havana

Antonio Maceo monument, Havana

The monument along the Malecón to Antonio Maceo, a bronze equestrian statue of the mulato general who cut a blazing trail across the entire length of Cuba during the First War of Independence. Lt. General José Antonio de la Caridad Maceo y Grajales (1845 – 1896) was second-in-command of the Cuban Army of Independence. Fellow Cubans gave Maceo the sobriquet of the “Bronze Titan” (El Titan de Bronce), which was a reference to his skin colour, stature and status.
