Description: Sculpture by Ivan Meštrović (1952; cast 1990), Syracuse University. "This Moses was intended as the central figure in a memorial to the 6 million Jews who were killed during World War II. The memorial was designed with Moses standing to the left, his arm outstretched over a group of bas-relief figures that are walking towards the tablets of the law on the right. The memorial, intended for placement on New York's Riverside Drive, was never completed because of financial difficulties, and conflicts with the city's Parks Commissioner, Robert Moses."
