Bronze statue by Dony McManus from 2000, located on City Quay as a tribute to the dockworkers who used to unload and tie up ships on the Liffey. The kneeling figure pulling on a rope perfectly captures the physical labour and maritime character of the old Docklands. It is a photogenic, realistic work that sits beautifully by the waterfront and the modern buildings behind it.
