Christ the Steersman on top of a "chimney" at Our Lady Immaculate and St Frederick, Limehouse, London

This statue of Jesus was apparently designed to be seen from the nearby River Thames although I doubt it now is. Anyway I've featured a photo of this on previous occasions but never from this angle which is actually a very rare view even for a local!

Well, I had sailed four or five voyages to the north, in the whalers, and was then about twenty-five years old, when I thought I would go back to Yarmouth and show myself; for I was 'harpooner and steersman' at that early age, and not a little proud.
