Allies - Churchill-Roosevelt statue

50 years of peace : London Remembers, Aiming to capture all memorials in London

---

The two seated allies are unidentified at the site but with the assistance of our US consultant, Trevor Blake, we can confidently identify them as, left to right: Franklin D Roosevelt and Winston Churchill.  The plaque is in the pavement to the right of the bronze statue.   This 'seated double' belongs to the select group of seated London statues - see Peabody.
