Description
This interesting sculptural decoration of a heavily bearded, twin-tailed merman, with a pair of wings, sits above the Rising Sun tavern, Tottenham Court Road, near Goodge Street station.
The Rising Sun public house was built in 1896 by Treadwell and Martin. The building has a remarkable Victorian exterior with a refurbished interior housing a typical English pub (apparently, the Revolutionary Karl Marx drank here on pub crawls when he lived nearby).

Beautiful capture I love the way you're working with shades in your photos, they show dimensions and give perception of depth so nicely
