Wide shot of the dome of the Bank of England building, with the bronze figure of Ariel, the wind goddess, standing on top against a blue sky. Ariel appears in a dynamic pose with draped fabric flowing around her.
Closer view of the Ariel statue atop the dome, showing more detail of the figure’s posture and the dramatic sweep of her robes. Architectural details of the dome are visible below.
On week four at the #BankofEnglandMuseum & already fully obsessed with the building. This is Ariel, the wind goddess from The Tempest, perched on one of the domes since 1925 when architect Sir Herbert Baker re-designed the building!
