Sumario:This work addresses the revaluation that is made in Buenos Aires of the figure of José de San Martin during the period 1862 - 1880, within the framework of the construction of the identity bases of the Argentine nation. For this, a differentiation is made between the perception that the government keeps in 1824 when San Martín goes into exile and the posthumous tributes of the aforementioned period. In this sense, images and monuments typical of the time are used that allude to the revaluation of the "Great Liberator". Disdained by the current government at the time of his departure, the public image of San Martín takes on a different dimension for the national State in a context where it must look for heroes who are part of an identity base of the Argentine nation. San Martín, is part of this selection. In this way, art constitutes one of the resources par excellence to reflect the image of a magnanimous and heroic hero in accordance with the objective of building the identity bases of the nation.
