Equestrian statue of the Duke of Cambridge, Bronze equestrian memorial in Whitehall, United Kingdom

The bronze statue presents Prince George mounted on horseback, wearing a Field Marshal uniform and holding a ceremonial baton in Whitehall Street.

King Edward VII unveiled this memorial in June 1907, commemorating Prince George who served as Commander-in-Chief of the British Army from 1856 to 1895.

The granite base features bronze reliefs depicting soldiers from the Grenadier Guards and the 17th Lancers, representing British military traditions.

Located near the former War Office building, this 7.6-meter monument stands as a Grade II listed structure in central London.

The construction required forty-five tonnes of granite for the plinth, while the bronze statue was installed during nighttime operations.
