Short walk today, through Trafalgar Square and into the National Gallery, to view the Bridget Riley exhibition (I would've taken a photo but I was halted by a guard).This relief sculpture of endangered animals frames an archway on this building at one corner of Trafalgar Square. The sculptor, Barry Baldwin, carved it in situ from Portland 'Fancy Beach' limestone over a three year period. It's amazing how many sculptures of wildlife there are around central London -- from lions in Trafalgar Square to giant fish and camels along the Embankment.
