Architectural Ornament, Shaftsbury Av., London
Abstract
Always thouht this guy looked cool, scanned him on the way to the office today. Not sure who / what he is! Edit: @jeremielouvetz tells me this is a "Mascaron" which is "is a face, usually human, sometimes frightening or chimeric whose function was originally to frighten away evil spirits so that they would not enter the building." ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mascaron_%28architecture%29 On the same building / block as the Shaftsbury Theatre.
