Don't recognise the sculpture but I recognise the building.
-
• #6881
It's a nice sculpture, but it's really easily missed because of its location and some of the worst architecture in London spoiling its surroundings.

Going by the filename of the image, yes

Aha, I hadn't seen beyond the "Gentleman Golfers" bit until I scrolled down. I had one of my worst ever job interviews in that building. Nasty bunch of people.

Wasn't going to nab this one, since it's only two days since I did one, but I had a meeting in the area, so....
Old: Fruiterers Passage (imagine Jonathan Ross getting his tongue around that) under Southwark Bridge.
For contrast, here's a rather more futuristic rear entrance:
Honestly, though, this spot is surrounded by impressive architecture and Olde Worlde ambience (so rich you could almost smell it), and I chose this. No taste.

Old: Rear entrance of Goldman Sachs (hence 'futures' reference?), which occupies the old Daily Telegraph building on Fleet Street - within sniffing distance of Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese, a most excellent historical pub
So, from riches to Rags: another rear entrance

Lovely day for tagging, another clue yet?
-
• #6896
Should be findable from the visible landmarks alone, I'd have thought
-
• #6897
emminently googleable too.
think everyone is either busy or out enjoying the weather! -
• #6898
And indeed, with the magic of google maps, it took me about to be standing (virtually) on a bridge looking down at the spot. Nice day for a ride out that way, if anybody's pootling.
