Re: Classicism

Hee-hee-hee (laughs maniacally and twirls mustachio's) I knew this one would get you all going.

What you are looking at is part of a terra-cotta frieze. Despite the colour of the photo, it is in actuality a light buff colour, which contrasts sharply with the red brickwork within which it is set. It is mid to late victorian in date, which accounts for the slightly odd mishmash of elements.

Does that help...?
