Victoria Monument, Grade II listed sculpture in Derby Square, Liverpool, England

The Victoria Monument displays 26 bronze figures beneath a Portland stone dome, featuring allegorical representations of justice, wisdom, charity, and peace.

The monument was unveiled on September 27, 1906, following its foundation stone placement by Field Marshal Lord Roberts, Commander-in-Chief of the Forces.

Four groups of figures around the pedestal represent agriculture, commerce, industry, and education, reflecting the main values of Victorian society.

The monument measures 4.42 meters in height and stands at the center of Derby Square, where Liverpool Castle once stood.

In 2002, artist Tatsurou Bashi transformed the area surrounding the statue into a hotel room during the Liverpool Biennial festival.
