Summary edit
| Description |
English: The Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain, officially and popularly known as Eros,is a fountain surmounted by a winged statue of Anteros, located at the southeastern side of Piccadilly Circus in London, England. Moved after the Second World War from its original position in the centre of the circus, it was erected in 1892–93 to commemorate the philanthropic works of The 7th Earl of Shaftesbury, the Victorian politician and philanthropist.
Anteros was the brother of Eros and symbolises self-less love as opposed to romantic love. |
