This '42' represents the 42nd Parallel and 42˚S. The 8.5 metre sculpture by Rebecca Coote was created for the Drawing the Line project. The sign is located on the Chiswick property overlooking Ross from the north.
The lights of Ross glow at the bottom of the frame.
The viewpoint of the photo is such that a vertical line drawn from the horizon between the 4 & 2 represents the local meridian that passes through the South Celestial Pole and indicates direct South. The elevation of the South Celestial Pole is 42˚ above the horizon (Just above the top of the sculpture).
