The aluminium statue of Eros the greek mythological God Of Love, stands at the top of The Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain in London's Piccadilly Circus

$In London's Picadilly Circus square there is a fountain, and at the top of it is Anteros, although everyone calls it the fountain of Eros in the wrong way, since it is Anteros, the avenging god of unrequited love, not Eros or Cupid, his brother, who represented frivolous and passionate love. Anteros represents the most mature love, since this statue was erected to commemorate the Earl of Shaftesbury, a politician, philanthropist and social reformer, who during his inauguration was much criticized for not looking like a respectable symbolism for this Count.\nBuilt by Sir Alfred Gilbert between 1885 and 1893. During World War II, in 1939, it was removed for safety, and did not return to its place until 1948.$

Eros - Cupid at Piccadilly Circus in London

The Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain is located at the southwestern side of Piccadilly Circus in London, United Kingdom. Moved after World War II from its original position in the centre, it was erected in 1892–1893 to commemorate the philanthropic works of Lord Shaftesbury, who was a famous Victorian politician and philanthropist. The monument is topped by Alfred Gilbert's winged nude statue generally known as Eros. The statue has become a London icon: a graphical illustration of it is used as the symbol of the Evening Standard newspaper and appears on its masthead. It was the first in the world to be cast in aluminum and is set on a bronze fountain, which itself inspired the marine motifs that Gilbert carved on the statue.
