We're entirely convinced. Duly amended and geolocated.

Arun Nair said:
I think this photograph is from Bombay too. (Almost surely not Melbourne. The architecture of the building in the background is colonial Indo-British.) Here are a few similar images I found online: collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O214685/photograph-the-queens-... www.ebay.co.uk/itm/India-Old-Colour-Postcard-QUEEN-VICTOR... s637.photobucket.com/albums/uu96/rockdoc2174/British%20In... www.pdavis.nl/VictoriaStatue.htm
The National Archives UK said:
Completely plausible. I wonder if anyone else can shed any light on this?
Arun Nair said:
It's highly unlikely that the statue is still installed at this location. Republican India promptly went about moving all statues of the British monarchy in public parks/traffic islands to museums. Nevertheless, a more reliable source than photos on the internet is always desirable :)
The National Archives UK said:
I'm sure you're right. This is where georeferencing this sort of thing gets complicated but usually we're trying to identify the point at which the photograph was taken rather than where the object being photographed has subsequently ended up. Although it would be fascinating to know or to see it in its museum context.

I heard it used to be near the Bombay Stock Exchange building but it now sits in the garden of the Bhau Daji Ladd museum (bdlmuseum.org) (formerly the Victoria and Albert museum( if I'm not mistaken.
