Haiti-Le Marron Inconnu

Le Marron Inconnu de Saint-Domingue, shortened as Le Marron Inconnu, also called Le Nègre Marron or Nèg Mawon, is a bronze statue of a runaway slave commemorating the abolishment of slavery and is in the capital of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Construction of the statue was completed on 22 September 1967 by Albert Mangonès. It measures at 3.60 metres long by 2.40 metres high. The bust depicts a bronze near-naked fugitive, kneeling on one knee, torso arched, opposite leg stretched back, a broken chain at its left ankle, while holding a conch shell at its lips with its left hand, head tilted upward, while the other hand holds a machete at the ground to its right ankle.
