LONDON ICON NO:1
By Laura Fitzpatrick


This image was taken on a autumn Sunday morning at london bright next to Vauxhall bridge

The sculpture, entitled The Rising Tide, has been installed near the bankside of Vauxhall bridge and is the work of Jason deCaires Taylor.

The installation, which sits less than a mile from the Houses of Parliament, comprises four life-size shire horses, standing as a symbol of the origins of industrialisation but also as a warning for the bleak future it is creating for the world by their representation of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
