About this picture: "Le Negre Marron" (The Black Maroon; in Creole, "Neg Mawon"), Port-au-Prince, Haiti, often translated in English as the statue of the Unknown Slave.

The "Negre Marron" is shown with left leg extended (broken chain on his ankle); a machete in his right hand, and his left hand holding a conch shell to his lips.

The conch shell used by the Neg Marron or Unknown Slave was often used as a trumpet to assemble people.

Created by the Haitian sculptor, Albert Mangones, the statue was commissioned to commemorate the slaves who revolted against France from 1791 to 1804.
