Description

On the plinth in the north east corner of Trafalgar Square is this statue of King George IV (aka The Prince Regent during the last 10 years of George III).

Sculpted by Francis Chantrey.

It is Grade II listed. Originally cast for the Marble Arch at Buckingham Palace, 1829 - 1843. Finally installed at Trafalgar Square.

It is bronze on a granite pedestal. Be-cloaked portrait in contemporary dress but with Roman Emperor convention, riding stirrup-less.
