BBC NEWS | Magazine: "The vacant plinth in Trafalgar Square is to be filled with a marble statue of a naked woman. Rather than aping classical sculpture, the model - Alison Lapper, born with no arms - says it is a very modern take on femininity.
When heavily pregnant with her son, artist Alison Lapper posed naked for a sculpture which is about to take pride of place in the heart of London.
The work - entitled Alison Lapper Pregnant, by Marc Quinn - has been selected to fill the empty fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square for 18 months, the latest in a rota of sculptures for the plinth."
