      • Ivan Shadr made the sculpture in plaster in 1925–1927; the plaster original is kept in the Tretyakov Gallery.
      • The bronze cast was made in 1947 and placed in the park in 1967, for the 50th anniversary of Soviet power.
      • It shows a young worker tearing a stone out of the pavement — a generalised image of an uprising participant.
      • The same December Uprising Park has two more monuments to the events of 1905 on Presnya.
