A statue of the English Romantic poet John Keats is located in Moorfields, Moorgate in the City of London.
It was sculpted by Martin Jennings and depicts a larger than life-size copy of a life mask of Keats taken aged 21.
Keats was the son of an ostler at the nearby inn, The Swan and Hoop.
[1] It was unveiled by Michael Mainelli, the Lord Mayor of London, on 31 October 2024, the 229th anniversary of Keats' birth.
[2][3] The circular base of slate around the plinth is inscribed with a quote from the fifth stanza of Keats' 1819 Ode on Indolence: My sleep had been embroider'd with dim dreams; My soul had been a lawn besprinkled o'er With flowers.
