Queen Victoria, Memorial monument in Republic Square, Valletta, Malta
The marble statue features Queen Victoria wearing a traditional Maltese lace shawl, standing atop a decorated pedestal in Republic Square of Valletta.
Giuseppe Valente sculpted this monument in 1891 to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, marking fifty years of her reign over the British Empire.
The statue placement in Republic Square, locally known as Pjazza Regina, reflects the strong British influence on Maltese society during the colonial period.
Located in front of the National Library, the memorial serves as a central meeting point and reference landmark for visitors exploring Valletta's historic district.
The statue's funding came entirely from public subscriptions, demonstrating the local population's connection to the British monarchy in the nineteenth century.
