Artist Lorena Spelucín and historian Lothar Busse extensive investigation around the original public sculpture that Lajos D'Ebneth. (Hungarian, 1902, emigrated to Peru in 1942, d. 1982) created in Cusco in 1953: the monument to Manco Cápac, whose original piece was destroyed and that Spelucín has redone almost identical to the original. Lajos DœEbneth one of the Bauhaus teachers who emigrated to Lima in 1949 and ended up taking refuge in Cusipata, near a ravine in Chaclacayo, where he formed his refuge. He came with his wife, artist Maria Scholten, and they met a group of architects who surrounded them because of the mysticism of their convictions. DœEbneth was so important that in the Berlin Museum there is a fairly large area dedicated to a laboratory on his work. And in the Utrecht Museum there is another similar space. However, despite his importance in Peru, the new generation ignores his existence, despite the fact that two of his monuments are located in one of the most strategic parks in Lima: the sculpture tribute to Ensign Salazar and, a few meters away, the piece Towards Glory, a work that made an international tour celebrating the best of the sculpture of the first half century.
