Monumental Statues of Famous People

Brief

In this contest I would like to see your photos of statues of famous people. Please only enter photos of the statues as monuments and not those that are made to beautify the facades of buildings. The contest is dedicated exclusively to monuments erected in honour of famous people and I would like the photos to contain only the monument and not visitors who were photographed next to it. I would really appreciate creative angles of shooting the monumental statues. Both colour and monochrome photos are welcome.
