The beautiful sculpture of no less beautiful woman and an icon of the American cinema appeared in Tossa de Mar as a thank you to Ava Gardner for the fame she had brought to Tossa de Mar while filming Pandora and the Flying Dutchman here in 1950, turning it into one of the most famous and beloved resorts in the Costa Brava.
