Product Description:

Amen Corner lies at the junction of Paternoster Row and Ave Maria Lane, just to the west of St Paul's Cathedral in the City of London.

The area was notable as the site of the Royal College of Physicians until it was burnt down in the Great Fire of London in 1666.

The modern Amen Corner is a stub of road that leads to Amen Court, home to the canons of the cathedral where the first meeting of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament was held in 1958.

My family and I went into London one day to have a look around, and as usual, I took my trusty camera with me. This street sign leapt out at me as I knew of the band by the same name; I hadn't realised that the location had such a history!

I substantially altered the colour and contrast of this photograph, using Photobucket to give it a "Pop Art" effect.
