Morning, also known as Morning Statue,[1] is an outdoor sculpture by Donal Hord, installed at San Diego's Embarcadero Marina Park North, in the U.S. state of California.[2] The 6-foot, 3-inch black granite statue depicts a muscular young man stretching.[3] It was created between 1951 and 1956, and was kept at Hord's residence until being acquired by the Port of San Diego in 1983.[4]
