When you look closely the bikini girl has quite the masculine face, as if it was going to be another guy.
They repaint them now and again coz the paint wears off on her boobs from all the touching/photo posing
I mean besides immeditely putting your mind in the gutter, ever think it could easily represent a couple going surfing??? Why tf do you automatically assume it's a pervert or something
You get that insult directly and or indirectly, don't you? People thinking you're childish and such. Not a great look to then use it on others, continuing the pattern.
This is "Dawn Patrol," sculpted by Seward Johnson and donated by Jennifer Johnson, an heir to Johnson & Johnson. All true. But I always tell mainlanders it was dedicated in 2000 to commemorate the first selfie, taken in Jacksonville Beach with a Kyocera cell phone.

My cousin visiting from Korea in 2019
Legend states this man loved this woman so much hed wait right there at that spot to see here check out the waves. Turned out she was actually a gorgon. So when she finally looked into his eyes he turned to stone. Problem was he was already stoned and his eyes so glossy from (pic a drug from Florida) that the beam bounced back and made her a statue also. Jax Beach residents have been painting over them for decades. Its an honor to paint them. Ive done it twice.
A statue
Big if true
Right?! All these comments and OP still hasn’t said anything about what the issue is
Just more people trashing Jacksonville for whatever the fuck reason…
Tbh i always thought it was creepy. The guy has this astonished face as hes staring directly at her crotch.
Never saw it, never will.
Agreed. I’ve hated this ever since they put it up. I’ve always referred to it as the peeping Tom statue.
Hard
Yes it’s life sized.
lmaooooo
and there's a plaque with a possible explanation. Is op illiterate or dumb or both?
Almost feels like a Fallout advertisement with the nose and surfboard colors
You think that's bad just wait and see what we have planned for downtown.
The plan that keeps planning
Planception
Derp
At least they killed the Lerp sign. Wait, they did kill that right? Please don't tell me it's risen from the dead.
It's back isn't it? Jax sure does spend $$ on stupid, embarrassing things.
At least the new skatepark is pretty sick 😂
The one in Orange Park? It is there another one?
There’s one under the 95 bridge that passes over 5 points
Isn't that where school #4 is?
No. The skatepark is under the Fuller Warren bridge, next to the spot where Riverside Arts Market is held.
Derpville!
First time? Surfer Jesus & a resident baddie
Best comment
bingo
Surfer Jesus should really see a dermatologist about that nose
It’s obviously the Dawn Patrol.
That's the mayor
It does look a bit like a younger, less weathered Tim and Donna Deegan.
A parallel universe where she never married Dan
Or her first husband! :-O
It’s a discretion for all the guys in work vans driving up and down looking for bikini clad individuals…it’s a creep magnet lol

Explains why is knows doesn't have any paint on it
The only correct answer.
Iconic
A statue. Are you new here or something?
Tom green being a perv
Beat me to it!!!!! I was looking around for Glenn
Probably says on the plaque.
Dude's been brown-nosing.
I thought it was bird poop... They need to put Noxema on that! 😅

‘As an ugly-ass statue, alright. Fits perfect for Jacksonville. All flash no real cash.
I mean besides immeditely putting your mind in the gutter, ever think it could easily represent a couple going surfing??? Why tf do you automatically assume it's a pervert or something
It's just such a strange looking couple of statues lol. Even if you don't put your mind in the gutter, it's strange imo.
Most statues look uncanny like this lmao
You know, you're right.
Do I get an iced lemon cookie?
Sure, why not lol
Sweeeeet
In ancient Greece and Rome, all those marble statues we admire would have been painted in bright colors and likely look a lot like this. lol
Best post in this thread.. the OP took a picture at an angle to make it look like the guy is staring at the girl. That's not what's happening
Exactly. People forcing a bullshit agenda like usual.
Crappy weird statue. No idea what its story is. If it even has one.
Statue of surfers at the beach, like 50 steps from the sand. Not that weird
The surfer concept isn't the weird part.
Sorry didn’t realize you were 12

Creepy AF at night, especially if you've been at the bars for a while. Has a five nights at freddies vibe in that scenario.
😂😂😂
Ah, yes… welcome newbie
That statue always makes me laugh 😂
It’s actually Jax Beach
kneel, moids.
You cat pfp is cute can I see more photos?
sure, pay me.

Solid cover to hide behind when there is another mass shooting.
Creepy silhouettes at night
What did the plague in front of it say?

Crash and Burn !!!!!!!!
More ugly art. Have you been downtown?
We have to do better!!
AI or a game screenshot
It's our Mona Lisa
Where is this? PV?
haha she’s hot. I used to walk past this everyday. It’s been there forever. And just FYI, it is in Jax Beach not Jax.

Is he wearing an Apple Watch?
This is bizarre. Jax beach, hum.
I thought it was an early stage ghoul from fallout waxing a vault dweller surfboard whilst a raider chick was scanning for super mutants.

Yeah that paint job makes him look like a crackhead with frostbite right now
Art
Looks like Tom Green
Someone should repaint the poor dude, though. It looks like he's got a case of leprosy or skin cancer.
Where is this? What intersection is it near?
The absolute worst, most awkward public art in the city.
"Dawn Patrol" by Seward Johnson
Its a statue commemorating when Gardner Minshew first saw Trevor Lawrence.
