GEORGE SQUARE, GLASGOW

George Square, Glasgow, 15 x 10 inch ink, watercolor and colored pencil by George C. Clark   AVAILABLE

I drew this one afternoon last July in George Square in the heart of Glasgow's Merchant City.  That imposing building houses the City Chambers.  The column at the right is topped by a statue of Sir Walter Scott, the novelist.  Sir Walter is topped by a seagull, as are most of the statues in Glasgow.  An exception is the equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellington in front of the Gallery of Modern Art, which is topped by an orange traffic cone.  I kid you not.
