Created by Sir Richard Westmacott in 1831, the statue was commissioned by King George IV to depict his father, King George III.
An integral part of British heritage and culture, its depiction as a Roman Emperor symbolizes the Georgian era's influence on classicism.
Found near Windsor Castle, it offers a striking viewpoint over the surrounding territory that attracts many tourists each year.
The richness of its corroded verdigris patina gives it its name, despite being made predominantly of bronze, not copper.
