Duke of Wellington
Arthur Wellesley, the 1st Duke of Wellington, served twice as Prime Minister and was among the commanders who helped the Napoleonic Wars. His achievements, in Glasgow at least, have been overshadowed by a traffic cone.
As most great decisions are made, the first time the Duke donned his orange hat was reportedly the result of a beer-hazed night out in the early 80s. The people behind the origins are unclear, but they were unlikely to know it would become a tourist attraction.
Due to the height of the statue, Glasgow City Council had to employ a cherry picker just to take it down, but, each time they did, the cone was back within the swish of a horse's tail.
All of my photographs are printed on Fuji DP Professional paper to ensure fantastic quality and longevity and mounted in a cream mount. All framed photographs collected in person will be supplied with glass, all posted frames will be supplied with perspex.
