The website "Memória Expo98 (Memory expo98)" tell us: (visit link)

"The monumental Sun-Man sculpture was created by Jorge Vieira. With a height of around 20 metres and weighing 15 tons, it is an anthropomorphic structure inspired by the Sun.

This piece is regarded as a kind of summarised testament to the creator’s work, a symbiosis between surrealism and abstraction, explored three-dimensionally.

Jorge Ricardo da Conceição Vieira was born in Lisbon, on 16th November 1922 and died in Évora in 1998."
Year built or dedicated as indicated on the structure or plaque: 1998
