To tell you truth, I have no idea. I did not find any info there. This sculpture depicted man buried, rather half buried and crying for help

To tell you truth, I have no idea. I did not find any info there. This sculpture depicted man buried, rather half buried and crying for help Marcilo, Thanks for sharing some beautiful travel pictures. Some of these scenes appear familiar. Please keep posting more pictures. I found a short description of the Awakening sculpture: Just about a mile from the National Mall along the beautiful Potomac Haines Point - Washington DC - The Awakening - Reaching Arm. The highlight is at the end of the park, on a peninsula called Hains Point. There you will find a most interesting sculpture called The Awakening. It is giant 5-part cast aluminum statue that looks like a 100 foot tall bearded man. Head mostly buried and appears to be struggling to free himself, with only his face contorted in a scream, a single hand, arm, one bent knee and a foot exposed above ground. I believe the face looks Neptune-ish. Haines Point - Washington DC - The Awakening - HandCreated by American sculptor J. Seward Johnson, Jr., and installed in the park in 1980 for the International Sculpture Conference Exhibition; it has arguably become one of the most popular non-monument sculptures in DC.
