This bronze statue, replicating Victor Kahill's famous Maine Lobsterman, depicts a fisherman at work, demonstrating the traditional technique of pegging a lobster's claws. The sculpture serves as both a decorative element in The Wharf's public space and a cultural link to America's fishing heritage. Positioned prominently along the waterfront development, the statue provides an iconic photo opportunity while paying tribute to the maritime industry. The piece contributes to The Wharf's maritime theme and helps establish a connection between Washington's inland harbor and the broader coastal fishing culture of America's seaports.
