Anna Livia (monument)

Anna Livia is a bronze monument located in Croppies' Acre Memorial Park in Dublin, Ireland.

[1] Designed by the sculptor Éamonn O'Doherty,[2] the monument was commissioned by businessman Michael Smurfit, in memory of his father, for the Dublin Millennium celebrations in 1988.

[3] The monument is a personification of the River Liffey (Abhainn na Life in Irish) which runs through the city.

In the monument's original location, the river was represented as a young woman sitting on a slope with water flowing past her.

In late February 2011, partly reworked and refurbished, the statue was relocated to Croppies Memorial Park next to the Liffey, near Heuston station.
