The Guild has taken as its emblem this marble head of Mithras of about 180-220 AD. It was discovered during the excavation of the late Roman temple of Mithras just off Queen Victoria Street after the Second World War and is now in the Museum of London.
Mithras was a complex cult figure embodying light, truth and regeneration.
To the Guild of Art Scholars this emblem represents the history which lies everywhere beneath the surface of the City of London.
