Statue of the Queen

from Powerhouse Museum

Looks like the statue of Her Majesty in Macquarie Street, near Hyde Park. I'll have to check on that one.

Yes it is - www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2363479550/ Centennial celebrations a couple of days early on 24 January 1888 ?
beachcomber australia said:
No, it was the unveiling of the new statue of Queen Victoria in the renamed Chancery Square, with a crowd of 60,000. See the Sydney Morning Herald for 25/01/1888 (the following day) page 5. trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/page/1391390?zoomLevel=5
beachcomber australia said:
It is interesting to read in the newspaper above that the original intention was to move the statue of Queen Victoria from the Garden Palace ( www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/4067538364/ ) to this position, but it was unfortunately destroyed in the great fire of 1882.
