The Domain, Henry Lawson statue

This bronze statue of famous Australian poet and short story writer Henry Lawson stands in the Domain parkland, surrounded by the loop of Mrs Macquaries Road. The sculpture created by George Lambert in 1931 features the poet flanked by Australian icons from his works about the Australian bush: a swagman, a fence post and a dog.
