Last man standing

Slightly outsize man sculpture in the town-center park in  Galway city, Ireland

This lad kept a weary eye on Eyre Square while the arts festival came and went. 

Officially he's an artwork by ...

Sculptor Sean Henry [who] is internationally renowned for his quietly monumental figures, which transform the everyday into something uncanny and deeply human. Working at unexpected scales and with subtly altered proportions, his sculptures capture solitary men and women in moments of pause, vulnerability and reflection, inviting viewers to look closely, and to recognise themselves.

But I've been calling him "Don't mess with me"
