Sadly, I don’t have time to write it up just now, so in the meantime
enjoy a few choice photos of Henry Moore’s bronze
Locking Piece (1968), on Millbank, just outside what is now Tate Britain. Remember, this is the site where
Jeremy Bentham’s Millbank Prison once stood. Somewhere behind that wall is where prisoners boarded ships for transportation to Australia.
Across the river is Vauxhall, with the MI6 Building and St George’s Wharf on the riverfront.
Thanks to Marwood Shipping Container Hire, the scene resembled a
Jeffrey Smart painting.

Love Jeffrey Smart,
The cyclist through the frame makes it all the more 'Smart', yeah?
Good call.
