User / State Library of NSW / Queens Statue, Garden Palace Building, Sydney, between 1879-1882 / [NSW Government Printer ?]
State Library of New South Wales / 4,807 items
Sydney has two large bronze statues of Queen Victoria but this one no longer exists. The "Garden Palace" which housed the International Exhibition between 1879-1882, was destroyed by a fire with flames which could be seen for 20 miles. A pond in the Botanic Gardens marks the spot where the statue stood under the dome.
