"Peace in"Quafriga"
The bronze statue on Constitution Hill Arch weighing thirty eight ton, was sculpted by Adrian Jones and erected in 1912. The sculpture depicts the angel of peace descending on the chariot of war. The face of the charioteer leading the quadriga is that of a small boy (actually the son of Lord Michelham, the man who funded the sculpture). The statue is the largest bronze sculpture in Europe.
