Description | View of Trafalgar Square by night, looking west across the east fountain and Nelson's Column towards the Grand Hotel and Northumberland Avenue. To the left is the Grand Hotel. At the top of the Grand Hotel building are advertising lights for Sout fire extinguishers, Crosse & Blackwell, Wincarnis tonic wine and The Daily Mail. There is also a large advertisement for McNish Whiskey and a production of "Folly to be Wise" at the Piccadilly Theatre. The statues of Sir Henry Havelock and General Gordon can be seen shadowed against the lights of the Grand Hotel, as can one of Landseer's lions and the base of Nelson's Column. |
