Statue of Benjamin Disraeli, Bronze monument in Parliament Square, Westminster, United Kingdom.
The bronze statue depicts Benjamin Disraeli in his ceremonial robes as Earl of Beaconsfield, standing on a red granite pedestal facing the Houses of Parliament.
Created by Mario Raggi and unveiled on April 19, 1883, the monument commemorates the second anniversary of Disraeli's death and his legacy as Victorian Prime Minister.
The statue became the focal point for Primrose Day celebrations, where visitors left primrose flowers to honor Disraeli's memory throughout the early 20th century.
Located on the west side of Parliament Square, the Grade II listed monument is accessible via Westminster Underground Station and nearby bus routes.
The sculpture was cast by H. Young & Co. from a bust model that Raggi created before Disraeli's death, ensuring remarkable accuracy in the likeness.
