"Statesmen's Corner", North Transept, Westminster Abbey, 1865. Creator: Unknown
"Statesmen's Corner", North Transept, Westminster Abbey, [London], 1865. The more ancient monuments of the larger size, conspicuous on the opposite side of the north transept are those of two Dukes of Newcastle. These are, first, William Cavendish, the loyalist Duke, who died in 1676, and who lies here with his wife, the Duchess Margaret...The second is John Holles, the Duke who died in 1711. Three of our old Admirals - namely, Sir Charles Wagner, Vernon, of Portobello, and Sir Peter Warren - are likewise accommodated here...The statue of Canning, by Sir Francis Chantrey, is nearly opposite to the grave of Lord Palmerston, which is inclosed by the black handrail...Not less excellent, in its way, is Chantrey's statue of Sir John Malcolm, in his uniform as Major-General, with hand resting on his sword. The statue of Lord Castlereagh (or Robert, second Marquis of Londonderry, as the inscription says) is the work of Mr. Evan Thomas, and is creditable to that artist. It may be seen, to the left hand, close to the end of the black railings...The statue of Sir Robert Peel, by Gibson, stands in the right-hand corner, in the foreground of this View. The gravestone of William Pitt lies in the centre of the pavement'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
