Welsh dragon atop Cardiff City Hall
A close up shot of the fine Welsh dragon sculpture on top of the dome of Cardiff's City Hall (where the local city government is based). The building is an important early example of Edwardian Baroque architecture and and opened in 1906. The bronze statue is the work of Henry Charles Fehr (1867 - 1940), whose works include several notable sculptures and many war memorials across Britain.
