Inauguration of Marochetti's Statue of Her Majesty, at Glasgow, 1854. Creator: Unknown
Inauguration of Marochetti's Statue of Her Majesty, at Glasgow, 1854. Unveiling of a bronze equestrian sculpture of Queen Victoria in St Vincent Place. The value of such ornamental works in improving taste and elevating the minds of the people was universally felt and acknowledged...the covering was removed, and the Statue...presented to the thousands assembled, who testified their admiration of the noble work of art by loud and reiterated cheers. The band of the Queen's Own and the Veteran Battalion then struck up the National Anthem, which was performed amidst the waving of hats and handkerchiefs...three cheers were given for Baron Marochetti...we believe that no Royal personage could have shown greater consideration, or more sincere kindness towards any community, than was manifested by her gracious Majesty, on the occasion of her visit to Glasgow'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
