Statue of Queen Victoria, Victorian marble statue on College Green, Bristol, England

The marble statue portrays Queen Victoria holding imperial regalia, standing on a copper base decorated with fish and putti motifs at College Green.

Prince Albert Victor of Wales unveiled this Grade II listed statue in 1888 as part of Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee celebrations in Bristol.

The statue installation required relocating the Bristol High Cross replica, modifying the urban organization of College Green as a public gathering space.

Located at the apex of College Green near Bristol Cathedral, the statue stands 8 feet 6 inches tall and includes wheelchair accessible paths.

A glass time capsule discovered in 2004 within the statue's plinth now resides at the Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery.
