El Cenachero
PERIOD 20th century
DESCRIPTION
This bronze sculpture, which represents a typical figure of Malaga tradition, the "Cenachero" or Fish Vendor, is located in the Plaza de la Marina, behind the Municipal Tourist Information Office.
This monument to the Cenachero is a symbol of Malaga depicted in a fish vendor who holds in perfect balance the two baskets he carries, one on each arm.
This work of art pays tribute to a popular figure, now no longer seen, who walked the streets selling his fish and making his baskets "dance" as they hung from his shoulders or elbows.
