Bogotá's Barrio San Diego is home to the statue La Rebeca, the first sculptural representation of a naked woman in public space in Colombia. Erected in 1926 in neoclassical style, it is inspired by the biblical figure of Rebecca, wife of Isaac, a figure considered "feminist" by Catholic feminists. Depicted here topless, the nudity of her breasts shocked the good society of the time, and she made the headlines. Despite its transgressive aspect, it was preserved and is now part of Bogotá's cultural heritage.
