The sculptural project, which has features of the Art Deco style that was fashionable at the time, rises above an old bastion of the wall of Getaria, which serves as its base. The monument is crowned by a winged figure of Victory, an image of the figureheads that decorated the bows of ships.
Elkano took part in the expedition of the circumnavigator Fernando de Magellan, after whose death he took command of the Victoria and returned to Spain.
