This large bronze figure forms part of the Victoria Memorial erected in
memory of the late Queen in 1905.  It represents Peace and was designed by
sculptor George Frampton.

The following is a description of the statue taken from the Yorkshire
Evening Post of the 23rd November 1905 :

"Peace, the figure on the west side, is classic in design, beautiful in form
and face.  She bears a palm in one hand, and an orb, symbolic of the world,
in the other; and above her are delineations of the fruits of the earth,
signifying plenty."
