Christopher Columbus at Belgrave Square, London
myminifactory
In the south corner of Belgrave Square stands a bronze statue of youthful Christopher Columbus holding a rolled maritime chart, his gaze fixed intently westwards towards the Americas. The statue, a gift from the people of Spain, was sculpted by Tomas Banuelos in 1992 and rests atop a Portland stone base flanked by two narrow grey granite bands. Dedicated 'to all the peoples of the Americas', it commemorates the 500th anniversary of Columbus' historic encounter with the New World - a pivotal moment in history when he claimed territory on behalf of Spain for his groundbreaking expedition in 1492.
