Today's animals from Glasgow's architecture are these dolphinfish supporting a lamp on the Kelvin Way Bridge on the west end of the city.

Are the lamps on Kelvin Way Bridge the most ornate street lights in Glasgow? I think they might just be!

Sculpted by Paul Raphael Montford between 1914 and 1924, these lamps consist of four allegorial groups of larger than life figures representing eight aspects of Glasgow civil society: Peace and War, Navigation and Shipbuilding, Commerce and Industry; and Philosophy and Inspiration (the pair shown here).
