The Monument and the statue of King William IV from King William Street by English School is a notable example of public art and historical commemoration in the United Kingdom. The piece captures two significant landmarks: The Monument, a prominent column in the City of London, and the statue of King William IV, which once stood on King William Street. The English School, a term used to describe a collective of British artists and their works, is known for its contributions to various forms of visual art, including painting, sculpture, and printmaking.

The Monument, officially known as The Monument to the Great Fire of London, was designed by Sir Christopher Wren and Dr. Robert Hooke. It was erected to commemorate the Great Fire of London in 1666 and stands at the junction of Monument Street and Fish Street Hill. This Doric column, standing 202 feet tall, is topped with a gilded urn of fire, symbolizing the blaze that devastated much of the city. The Monument remains one of the most iconic structures in London, offering panoramic views of the city from its viewing platform.

The statue of King William IV, created by sculptor Samuel Nixon, was unveiled in 1844. It was initially placed on King William Street, a major thoroughfare in the City of London named after the monarch. King William IV, who reigned from 1830 to 1837, was known for his naval career and his role in the passage of the Reform Act 1832, which significantly altered the British electoral system. The statue was a tribute to his contributions and legacy.

The artwork by the English School captures these two landmarks, reflecting the historical and cultural significance of both the Great Fire of London and the reign of King William IV. Through this piece, viewers are offered a glimpse into London's rich history and the enduring legacy of its monuments and public figures.
