11.  Modern Statues
There are numerous statues all around London with the half-human half-sea creature theme, some more bizarre than others.  Even some modern versions of man and sea themed statues are on display no doubt at staggering cost.  The modern artwork lacks...well everything IMHO.  It just isn't the same as the amazing classical handiwork that has managed to survive centuries. And beyond that, it's just kind of weird.
