Description

One of the twelve allowed casts of the original sculpture by Auguste Rodin.

This sculpture stands in Victoria Tower Gardens adjacent to the Houses of Parliament, London. It was cast in 1908, installed and erected on this site in 1914.


§ In my photo, behind the sculpture is <a href="http://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/building/palace/architecture/palacestructure/victoria-tower/" rel="nofollow">the Victoria Tower </a> the tallest building in the Houses of Parliament. § <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Burghers_of_Calais" rel="nofollow">Link to Wikipedia</a> to read more about the sculpture and the historical events which it commemorated.
