UK - London - Bloomsbury: British Museum - Cypriot statue
Image by wallyg
Upper part of a colossal limestone statue of a bearded man
From the Sanctuary of Apollo at Idalion (modern Dhali), Cyprus
About 500-480 BC
Evidently a priest
In 526/5 BC Cyprus suffered the same fate as the East Greek cites on the west coast of Asia Minor (modern Turkey). The island was absorbed into the Persian Empire which, since the fall of Babylon in 539 BC, had included Syria and Phoenicia. Freedom of movement within the Persian Empire intensified contact between these areas. Cypriot sculptors became more dependent on East Greek models and influenced by Phoenician taste.
Thus this priest is dressed in Greek fashion in a chiton partly covered by a himation. The short hair, secured by a laurel wreath decorated with rosettes, is also East Greek, as is the smile on the lips. However, the double bank of snake curls on the forehead, and the treatment of the artificially curled beard reflect Achaemenid influence.
The large figure, placed in the centre of a series of statues in the front of the main court of the sanctuary, would probably have represented a priest. The cult of the Greek god Apollo was not introduced to this sanctuary before the fourth century BC. Earlier, the principal god seems to have been represented by a male figure in a lionskin, brandishing a club in one hand and a lion in the other. These figures are reminiscent of both the Phoenician Melqart and the Greek Herakles and may be best described as the 'Cypriot Herakles'.
Height: 1.04 m
Excavated by Sir Robert Hamilton Lang

This statue is part of the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities (GR) of the British Museum, which covers the Greek world from the beginning of the Bronze Age in about 3200 BC, with material from the Greek mainland and islands, from Cyprus, from Asia Minor (including particularly material from Lykia and Caria), from Egypt and from the Italian peninsula. The collection of material from the native cultures of Italy, including the Etruscans, begins in the Bronze Age (around 2500 BC). Later the whole of the Roman Empire (except Britain) is covered until the Edict of Milan in AD 313, with later pagan survivals.
UK - London - Piccadilly: Piccadilly Arcade - Beau Brummell statue
Image by wallyg
A statue of Beau Brummell was unveiled by Princess Michael of Kent on November 5, 2002 outside the Jermyn Street entrance of Piccadilly Arcade. At its base reads the following inscription:
"To be truly elegant one should not be noticed."
George 'Beau' Brummell's connections with Court, clubs and tailoring embody the spirit of St. James'spast and present.
George Bryan Brummell (1778-1840) was an arbiter of fashion in Regency England and a friend of the Prince Regent. He led the trend for men to wear understated, but beautifully cut clothes, adorned with elaborately knotted neckwear. Brummell is credited with introducing and bringing to fashion the modern man's suit worn with necktie. He claimed to take five hours to dress, and recommended that boots be polished with champagne. His style of dress came to be known as dandyism.

UK - London - Knightsbridge: Harvey Nichols
Image by wallyg
Harvey Nichols, founded in 1813, is an upmarket department store chain. Its flagship store, pictured here, is in Knightsbridge, but it has expanded to other cities in Egnland and as far as Saudi Arabia and Dublin. It offers many of the world's most prestigious brands in womenswear, menswear, accessories, beauty, food, and home. In addition to its fashion retailing business, Harvey Nichols redeveloped the top floor to create a restaurant, bar, café, wine shop, and foodmarket. It attracts younger shoppers than its rival Harrods but tends to be more expensive.
In 1813, Benjamin Harvey opened a linen shop in a terraced house on the corner of Knightsbridge and Sloane Street in London. The business passed on to Harvey's daughter in 1820 on the understanding that she go into partnership with Colonel Nichols, selling Oriental carpets, silks, and luxury goods alongside the linens. In 1919, Harvey Nichols was bought by Debenhams and in 1985 became part of the Burton Group. In 1991, the store was acquired by Dickson Concepts, an international retailer and distributor of branded luxury goods based in Hong Kong and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. In April 1996, Harvey Nichols obtained a full listing on the London Stock Exchange and for next seven years, remained a listed company. February 2003, however, saw the controversial return of Harvey Nichols to private ownership. The store is now owned by the Hong Kong-based businessman Dr. Dickson Poon.
