List of public art in the City of London
This is a list of public art in the City of London, including statues, busts, commemorative plaques and other memorials.
The City of London is the historic nucleus of London as well as its modern financial centre. The City of London Corporation, its municipal governing body, states that "around almost every corner in the City you will find an unusual piece of public art or a commemoration of the City's great history".[1] This article lists the various permanent works of public art by the ward in which they are located.
In the 19th century, sculpture was incorporated into major engineering schemes such as the Victoria Embankment and the Holborn Viaduct. Entrances to the City are marked by statues of dragons (often mistakenly called griffins)[2] bearing the City's shield. The most elaborate of these is the Temple Bar Marker of 1880, which replaced a gate to the City, while two on the Victoria Embankment were originally made for the Coal Exchange building in 1849, and were repurposed as boundary markers in 1963.
Since 2010, the City has hosted an annual exhibition of public sculpture, called "Sculpture in the City".[3]
