Légende

Marble statue of Her Majesty, in the Royal Exchange, 1845. Sculpture of Queen Victoria at the Royal Exchange in the City of London: '...marble Statue of her Majesty, placed in the centre of the Merchants' area. The statue is cut from one block of fine white marble, and is from the chisel of Mr. Lough, one of our most eminent sculptors: it is of colossal size, and placed upon a stone pedestal'. The "Art Journal" condemned it as '...an odiously coarse production, in which not one feature of the Queen is recognisable'; it was of such 'gross vulgarity', that it exceeded 'the worst production that has ever been publicly exhibited'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
