Each of them presents the artist's signature and original date at the bottom: Debert, 1874.

It is made up of two male statues (Atlantes) and one female (Atlas). The reason for this representation draws from Greek mythology, with the characteristic posture raising the arms, pretending to be supporting the weight of the celestial vault (which is, symbolically, the weight of the World).

Exquisite realistic detail, which presents a perfect anatomical study of the bare-chested bodies and slightly contraposto posture. from the torso down, blurring with the wide tunics tied at the waist, each of the characters modulates their human form to transform into the pilaster that rests on the base.

These pilasters with a square base have a classic elevation on a base with an accentuated classic style and a decorative finish with an acanthus leaf. This piece has an attribution mark,
