Caption Description
A bronze figure entitled ""The Rising Man"" (""Die Aufsteigende"") was presented to the UN this morning by the Foreign Minister of the German Democratic Republic, Oskar Fishcer, on behalf of his country. The gift was accepted by Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim at a ceremony in the UN garden. The sculpture depicts a standing male figure about eight feet tall, symbolizing the rise of man towards an awareness of his historic role in society. The sculptor, Fritz Cremer, a leading artist of the German Democratic Republic, dedicated the work to the peoples liberating themselves from oppression. The sculpture is located at the north end of the garden, near the children's playground. It is set amongst azalea bushes and stands on a granite block about three feet high.
