EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic winged statue of Eros, standing proudly at the Shaftesbury Memorial in Piccadilly Circus, London. Known as the first statue ever cast in aluminium, this remarkable piece of art has become a symbol of both beauty and mythology. The vertical composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this magnificent sculpture. The delicate wings spread wide open, capturing the essence of flight and freedom. Eros himself stands tall with an air of elegance and grace, embodying love and desire. Located in the heart of England's capital city, this landmark is a must-visit for any traveler exploring London. Its vibrant colors perfectly complement the lively atmosphere that surrounds it. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a bustling metropolis where history meets modernity. The Shaftesbury Memorial serves as a reminder of philanthropy and compassion as it was erected to honor Lord Shaftesbury's dedication to improving social conditions during Victorian times. It stands as a testament to human resilience and progress. Walter Rawlings/Robert Harding skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also the significance behind this extraordinary monument. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it encapsulates centuries worth of stories within its frame – tales that have shaped London into what it is today.
