My favorite public sculpture in London - I'm gutted you've beaten me to it! ;-)
I just didn't get to it soon enough I guess (maybe I'll photo it some day from another viewpoint!). I always like to visit it when I'm in Westminster and have the time . . . the physical scale he's pitched it at is just fantastic! Large enough to give it incredible visual weight, but still close enough to human scale for real empathy. If anyone doesn't know it, go, see it in the flesh, take a look at the hands – and really understand what sculpture* is about!
*and I don't just mean figurative!
