If you were to walk along Devonshire Square, midway between Aldgate and Liverpool Street stations, you will discover this statue of a Knight on horseback.
It is a wonderful piece that, although looking out of place among the office buildings, harks back to a bygone era for the area.
It was commissioned by Standard Life Insurance Company, designed by Denys Mitchell and unveiled in 1990.
The knight, depicted in armour, sitting atop a neighing horse is made from beaten bronze, with blue glass lenses in the horse's carapace.
