Norway House. Cockspur Street London In London and above Norway House in Cockspur Street, by Trafalgar Square, there are four reliefs by Roslyn. The building was designed in 1914 and at the time no particular tenant had been identified so there is no particular reference in the reliefs to Norway itself. The compositions cover the themes of "Industry", "Transport", "Communications" and "Commerce". In the photograph to the left a woman sits spinning and factory chimneys belch out smoke, The relief dedicated to "Industry".

Famous quotes containing the word works:

    The hippopotamus’s day
    Is passed in sleep; at night he hunts;
    God works in a mysterious way—
    The Church can sleep and feed at once.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The appetite of workers works for them; their hunger urges them on.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 16:26.
