Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain, Piccadilly Circus

At the southeastern side of the Circus, stands the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain, erected in 1892–1893 to commemorate the works of Lord Shaftesbury, a Victorian politician, and social reformer. The subject of the Memorial is the Greek god Anteros and was given the name The Angel of Christian Charity but is generally mistaken for his brother Eros.
