EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Quadriga Peace statue, a magnificent work of art by renowned British sculptor Adrian Jones, situated atop Wellington Arch on Constitution Hill in the heart of Hyde Park Corner, London. Dating back to the 1910s, this iconic statue represents Peace driving a chariot, with four winged horses pulling the chariot. The charioteer, symbolizing Victory, holds aloft a wreath of laurel and olive branches, signifying both military triumph and the pursuit of peace. The Quadriga Peace statue sits proudly atop Wellington Arch, an impressive state triumphal archway designed by Decimus Burton in 1827. The archway was originally built as an entrance to Buckingham Palace and later moved to its current location in 1830. The statue was added in 1912 to commemorate the end of the First World War and the signing of the Treaty of Peace in 1919. The peaceful scene depicted in this photograph stands in stark contrast to the bustling junction below, where Constitution Hill meets Hyde Park Corner. The lush greenery surrounding the area adds to the serene atmosphere, creating a striking visual balance between the historical significance of the statue and the vibrant energy of the city. Adrian Jones' masterpiece, a symbol of peace and triumph, continues to captivate visitors to this day, serving as a reminder of the enduring power of hope and the pursuit of peace in the face of adversity.
