The streets and public spaces of London are rich with statues and
monuments commemorating the city's great figures and events - from
Nelson's Column in Trafalgar Square and Sir Christopher Wren's Great
Fire Monument to the charming Peter Pan statue in Kensington Gardens.
Executed in stone, bronze and a range of other materials, London's
statues and monuments include work by some of the world's greatest
sculptors. This newly revised book takes account of the many statues
erected between 2012 and 2017, including those of Mary Seacole at St
Thomas' Hospital and Amy Winehouse in Camden. London's Statues and
Monuments is a fully illustrated guide to these artworks and their
stories: sometimes surprising and occasionally controversial, but always
fascinating.
