Description
The Criterion Building is situated in London opposite Piccadilly Circus. It is a large building housing the old Criterion Theatre. This is the corner which overlooks Coventry Street and the Haymarket. On the roof can be seen the famous sculpture of three gold Ladies diving off the building which is directly above the bronze Horses of Helios which was made by the same sculptor, Rudy Weller.
These three ladies are also known as the daughters of Helios or the Three Graces. An old street lamp is in the foreground of this photograph and the image is portrayed in black and white to add a feeling of nostalgia to this wonderful architecture.
