Statue of the Earl of Chatham, in St. Stephen's Hall. MacDowell, sculptor, 1857. Creator: Unknown.

Statue of the Earl of Chatham, in St. Stephen's Hall, [Houses of Parliament, London]. MacDowell, sculptor, 1857. '...the statesman is represented in his robes, and speaking; the right hand raised, and the right leg thrown back. The face is thoughtful and expressive, reminding us of the justice of the remark that his eloquence - of the immediate effect of which there is no question - must have partaken very much of the only half-intellectual art of acting, and been indebted for his power to his voice, and other mere external advantages, as much as to any higher qualities Such was the orator and the statesman who for more than forty years filled so large a space in the public eye, and whose memory was associated with so much of popular principle and national glory. Mr. Macdowell has happily expressed the high-minded bearing of the great statesman'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
