UK - London - Business district and City art

City workers smoke cigarettes by the giant artwork of a bronze wing during a spring lunchtime in London's financial district. As light reflects off nearby office buildings, the lunchtime crowd walk past this giant artwork on their way to meetings and sandwich bars. The ten-metre-tall bronze sculpture is by President of the Royal Academy of Arts, Christopher Le Brun, commissioned by Hammerson in 2009. It is called ‘The City Wing’ and has been cast by Morris Singer Art Founders, reputedly the oldest fine art foundry in the world.
