"Men of the Docks" is a 1912 painting by the American artist George Wesley Bellows, a member of the Ashcan School of American art. The painting depicts a group of laborers on the snow-covered docks of New York City, with the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan skyline looming in the background. The work is renowned for its raw portrayal of the working-class men who are seen waiting in the cold for employment, capturing the social realities of the early 20th century urban America.

Bellows' use of bold brushwork and a muted color palette evokes the chill of the winter air and the harsh conditions faced by the dockworkers. The painting is a striking example of the Ashcan School's focus on everyday life and the gritty aspects of urban living, as opposed to the more genteel subjects favored by many of Bellows' contemporaries. "Men of the Docks" is also notable for its composition, which juxtaposes the industrial backdrop with the human figures, emphasizing the theme of man's struggle within the modern, industrialized world.

The painting is held in the collection of the National Gallery in London, having been purchased in 2014. It is the first painting by Bellows to enter a public collection in the United Kingdom and is considered a significant example of early 20th-century American realism. "Men of the Docks" continues to be studied and admired for its powerful representation of labor and urban life, as well as its technical mastery and emotional depth.
