The monument Homenagem ao Trabalhador Rural (Homage to the Rural Worker) is located in Foros de Salvaterra, Portugal, in the area known as Estanqueiro. Symbolically inaugurated on May 1, 2022, on the occasion of Labour Day, the work was created by artist Leonel dos Santos on the initiative of the Union of Freguesias of Salvaterra de Magos and Foros. The chosen location, the Estanqueiro square (formerly "Praça da Jorna"), was the point where historically rural labourers gathered to be hired by the day by the foremen of the large local agricultural estates. The sculpture depicts two rural workers engaged in the daily toil of the countryside. The monument aims to honour the memory and sacrifice of the "foreiros" (the inhabitants of Foros) who for generations have worked the land from dawn till dusk.
