Knight in Armour - Ottawa, Ontario - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

At first, I did not recognize what protruded from the corner of the former Langevin Building until I used the zoom on my camera to bring the object into focus. I was surprised to find a sculpture that resemble the armour worn by knights. While I did not see instruments of war such as swords or bows and arrows, the sculpture depicts what could be considered an armoured warrior. On the front of the knight is a tubular structure that resembles a set of animal horns.

I set the coordinates a bit west of the building because a passer-by would not see the sculpture if standing on the sidewalk in front of the building.
