London Labyrinths: Tube Art at Mansion House Station

Here's a photo of the labyrinth at Mansion House Undergound station. I photographed it when I was on the way to the Guildhall Library for the Dick Whittington Exhibition.

The labyrinth was created by Mark Wallinger for the Art on the Underground programme in a series called Labyrinth. There are, according to TfL, 270 different labyrinths designed by Mark, with one at each of London's Underground stations that existed in 2013. 

A Guinness World Record Tube Challenge is to visit them all in the shortest time. I've not done that, but I do look out for them when I use London's Underground. I've been fascinated by labyrinths for many years. I've walked them when I get the opportunity, I've read about them, visited them, written about them, and drawn them on paper. Here are links to some of my earlier posts on labyrinths:
