Wooden sculpture of London goes up in flames to mark Great Fire anniversary
Flames once again licked the historic buildings of Britain's capital as a wooden replica of 17th century London went up in smoke to mark the 350th anniversary of the Great Fire of London. The wooden replica was designed by American artist David Best and built by unemployed young Londoners over several months. The spectacle marked the end of "London's Burning", a four-day festival of free art events to mark the anniversary.
