This rather curvy lady, also known as "Reclining woman with cloth", or in her current position as the "Broadgate Venus" is a sculpture made by Fernando Botero, who appears to be Colombia's answer to Henry Moore.
I often walk round to Broadgate in my lunch hour and love to take pictures of this wonderful woman. 
The picture below I have named: "Gone with the wind"...
This week I am almost on time with my entry. Now I'm off to have a look at your curves!

WOW! That is something else - fantastic photo for the curvy theme, too. Very interesting.
very curvy woman she makes me feel good about myself
I love the sculpture. You did us a great service with the three perspectives. I especially like the third with the man sitting on the sculpture's pedestal. It really helps put in perspective how substantial the sculpture is.
Oh wow...that is impressive! Great curves!
It's a gorgeous sculpture, wonderful curves. A good woman;)
What an amazing lady, and great photo! She is very pretty, and has nice curves.
I didn't realize how large she was until the 'Wind' shot :)
