The statue of Thomas Davis, created by Edward Delaney, unveiled on Dame Street, Dublin, in 1966. The Four Angels Fountain in the foreground is a secondary piece to the memorial; the angels are blowing their trumpets to symbolically awaken the four provinces of Ireland.

Previously, this was the location of one of Dublin's finest equestrian statues, of King Willian the 3rd (William of Orange) on Horseback, by Grinling Gibbons. It was taken down after it was badly damaged in an explosion in November 1928.
