It appears that the State of Maine has placed or donated many of these bronze statues. It is very large and has a lot of detail. It is based on a real lobsterman, H. Elroy “Snoody” Johnson. It was originally commissioned by Sculptor Victor Kahill for the 1939 World's Fair. The Lobsterman is kneeling while pegging a lobster (banding a lobster claw). The pose reflects some artistic license as lobstermen typically stand when pegging lobster claws and would commonly wear a sou’wester. This statue is right in The Wharf on a pier. There is a seafood market just down from it. Lots of restaurants all around and activities to do.

Located at the Wharf, this statue of a Lobsterman from New England is placed near the fish market. There is plenty of nearby seating and this is a good place to hang out, admire the statue, eat a lobster roll or other fan favorite, and do some people watching.

Grabbed a pic before we arrive to Maine🦞

We found this statue as we were walking around. It’s down by the wharf where there are a couple excellent place to eat.

The bronze statue of the Maine Lobsterman is a gift from Maine. Located at the beginning of the Market Pier.
