Abingdon, Albert Park, The Albert Memorial 1890
Photo ref:

More about this scene
At the north end of the park the focus is a statue of Albert, Queen Victoria's Prince Consort, who had died in 1861 and in whose honour the estate had been named. The statue of Prince Albert stands on an elaborate column on a pedestal and is over 48 feet high. The date 1864 is carved at the back. The sculptor was Gibbs of Oxford. Below the column are plaques, each bearing the face of Queen Victoria in profile, the image familiar from coins and postage stamps. The railings and formal beds have gone.
