Through the study of the monuments that evoke them in the city of Lisbon we may establish an overview of its iconography that, despite variations due to different approaches of each sculptor, follows a common denominator. The present study proposes a discovery journey of this referential that makes the sculpture of a poet or a writer in a meticulous work of refection about literature, about society and about live
