A rediscovered sculpture of two people sunbathing has finally gone back on display at Waterloo station after an absence of 70 years.
The Sunbathers, created by Hungarian artist Peter Laszlo Peri, was originally placed at the entrance to the tube station to welcome visitors to the Festival of Britain in 1951.
The event, including the commissioned public artworks, was organised by Clement Attlee's Labour government to boost the nation's morale after the war and bring culture to the masses.
The artwork was then thought to have been lost, but was later found painted pink in the grounds of a hotel in Blackheath after Historic England held an exhibition at Somerset House highlighting missing post-war art.
A successful crowdfunding campaign allowed the sculpture to be restored to its original terracotta colours after £15,000 was raised.
A number of Peri's artworks are on display on buildings around London, including a tribute to children killed in the Blitz on Darley House in Vauxhall.
