Statue in Picadilly Circus (896x512)
In the middle of Piccadilly Circus stands the small statue of the Angel of Christian Charity by Alfred Gilbert, erected in 1893 in memory of the Victorian philanthropist, Lord Shaftesbury. Today, however, the statue is commonly regarded as depicting Eros, the Greek god of love.
