Visitors to the City of London financial district over the Summer might have noticed some interesting street art from the likes of Antony Gormley and Jake & Dinos Chapman.
Perhaps the most striking is a version of Robert Indiana’s famous LOVE sculpture outside a building at 99 Bishopsgate.
But look closely through the cracks in the sculpture.
The iconic installation has been planted outside the London office of legal giant Latham & Watkins.
Across the street is one of London’s newest skyscrapers, Heron Tower, home of McDermott Will & Emery, among others; and the Gherkin at 30 St Mary Axe.
Other London landmarks nearby are The Shard and soon-to-be “Cheesegrater” (122 Leadenhall Street) and the “Walkie Talkie” at 20 Fenchurch St.
