Arthur Sullivan Memorial, Bronze memorial in Victoria Embankment Gardens, London, England.
The Arthur Sullivan Memorial features a bronze bust mounted on a granite pedestal with a bronze female figure leaning against the stone base.
The sculptor William Goscombe John created this Grade II listed memorial in 1902 to honor the renowned English composer Arthur Sullivan after his death.
The pedestal displays a quote from The Yeoman of The Guard opera, accompanied by symbols including a mask, sheet music, and a mandolin.
The memorial stands near the Savoy Theatre and multiple London Underground stations, making it accessible for visitors exploring central London landmarks.
The bronze female figure wrapped around the pedestal represents either Grief or Euterpe, the Greek muse of music, in an unusual artistic interpretation.
