This guidebook takes you exploring London beyond its most famous sights to find the art we have never quite noticed before: the hidden statues, paintings, and murals that have escaped from the official museums, and often live unnoticed lives in tucked away places. A famous literary cat, for example, or a painting by Hogarth on the bend of a stairs in an ancient hospital.
