Statue of Edward VII, Bronze royal statue in Centenary Square, Birmingham, England
Standing over six feet tall, the marble statue depicts King Edward VII wearing field marshal uniform while holding a scepter and orb.
The Birmingham Mail newspaper launched a public appeal in 1910, successfully raising 5,000 pounds to fund the creation of this memorial statue.
The statue demonstrates the strong connection between Birmingham and the British monarchy through its detailed representation of royal regalia and symbols.
Located outside Baskerville House, the statue underwent extensive restoration in 2013, replacing the missing scepter, orb capital, and bronze decorative elements.
The statue features three distinct bronze groups representing Peace, Education, and Progress, reflecting the values of early 20th century British society.
