Royal Academy forecourt







The exhibit is positioned high above the courtyard.










It would have been good to have seen it at eye level like a metal wall so that I could view it from a distance and then come up close to appreciate the detail of the craftsmanship.

I think it lacks visual impact due to its position in the courtyard and it would be interesting to see it exhibited in other locations.
