That's beautiful in the day, but scarry at the night time, especially if you are walking towards it.

Love this sculpture on the corner of the North British and Mercantile Insurance Company Building on St Vincent Street in Glasgow, especially the webbed foot poking out the bottom of the cartouche. It was created by Archibald Dawson when the building was constructed the 1920s.

J.J. Burnet's North British and Mercantile Insurance Company Building at 200 St Vincent Street in Glasgow. Dating from the 1920s, and featuring sculptures by Archibald Dawson, it's a great example of the type of imposing financial building commonly constructed in the city at this time.

Reuben Heyday Margolin is a kinetic artist. He makes moving art that is captivating and inventive. Pieces that almost seem to be alive.
This one, called Interlaced, “contains 180 pieces of wood, 2 electric motors and a lot of string. It’s almost 2D, measuring 4’ wide and 7’ tall. 2 distinct waveforms pass through each other and are driven by an overhead flat weave.”
