Relief decoration on the outside of the headquarters of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales, an imposing landmark building and one of the finest examples of Victorian Baroque architecture. The main entrance is set to the centre of the front elevation and consists of a large porch with paired banded Tuscan columns supporting an open scrolled pediment containing a large cartouche depicting the Institute’s coat of arms, which is held up by two classical male figures. Below the first-floor windows is a continuous sill band in the form of a dentilled cornice interrupted by caryatids by Harry Bates. Set beneath the second-floor windows is a sculptured frieze by Hamo Thornycroft and symbolises all the activities that have benefitted from the service of accountants.
