Unveiled in early June just before the announcement of Billy's Knighthood, the 50ft (16m) high art works were created from original works by Scottish artists Jack Vettriano LinkExternal link , John Byrne LinkExternal link and Rachel Maclean LinkExternal link .

The original works can be seen in the People's Palace museum on Glasgow Green.
