The story behind the artwork

Victorian London explodes with colour, life and vivacity in this exhilarating celebration of the very best of this incredible city.

Upon first view, the iconic London skyline commands the eye.  The emblematic symmetry of London Bridge astride a proud St Pauls; Nelson’s Column and Big Ben reaching skywards from the arching spheres of The Royal Albert Hall and London Eye, mirroring the circular composition.  The 24 mile circumference abounds with colourful, joyful foliage and majestically adorned animals, weaving their way across this pulsating cityscape, tripping over icons and emblems that embody London in all its 32 boroughs.  From turn of the century theatres and Art Deco dwellings, to vibrant Carnaby and the ancient City boundaries at its heart.  Fantastical flying boats, a horse drawn carriage, ships under sail and steaming locomotives reflect the movement in this piece, but perhaps the most striking are the soaring Montgolfier style balloons, richly dressed and abundant in colour, traversing the suburbs, and reflecting the life, love and character of one of the world’s most beloved cities.
