Comments
Thanks for the appeal, @OvercookedRoach-PGO. After reviewing the additional evidence provided, we’ve decided to retire the Wayspots in question.
Thank you @NianticLC. I see another invalid wayspot has been added to the same area in the meantime.
Title: Curvae in Curvae
Location: 51.526634,-0.146516
This is another sculpture from the 2022 exhibition, again listed at https://www.frieze.com/article/your-guide-frieze-sculpture-2022-regents-park
There are also a couple of other wayspots nearby that are both duplicate and where the subject has been gone for at least 6 years:
Title: Green Hedge Figure
Location: 51.528108,-0.151188
Title: Moss Man
Location: 51.527827,-0.151708
These are the same topiary figure, (different time points would account for the difference in foliage). It was there for several years (2010 reference https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1974328, 2013 reference https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/uk-london-regents-park-topiary--221520875393630308/) but google street view from 2017 shows it had already been removed by then.
