This photograph ‘’London 1666’’ is of a 120 metre long sculpture to commemorate The Great fire of London that happened on the 2ndof September 1666. It was a collaboration of work by American ‘Burn’ artist David Best and Artichoke. Many months of work with young Londoners participating created this fantastic result that was set ablaze as part of the commemorations.
