Queen Eleanor Memorial Cross

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Queen_Eleanor_Memorial_Cross an entity of type: Thing

La Croix du Souvenir de la Reine Eléonore est un mémorial à Eléonore de Castille érigé sur le parvis de la gare de Charing Cross, à Londres, en 1864–1865. Il s'agit d'une reconstitution fantaisiste de la croix médiévale d'Eléonore à Charing, l'une des nombreuses croix commémoratives érigées par Édouard Ier d'Angleterre en mémoire de sa première femme. Le monument victorien a été conçu par Edward Middleton Barry, également l'architecte de la gare, et comprend plusieurs statues de la reine Eléonore par le sculpteur Thomas Earp. Il n'occupe pas le site d'origine de la Croix de Charing (détruite en 1647), qui est maintenant occupé par la Statue équestre de Charles Ier réalisée par Hubert Le Sueur. rdf:langString
The Queen Eleanor Memorial Cross is a memorial to Eleanor of Castile erected in the forecourt of Charing Cross railway station, London, in 1864–1865. It is a fanciful reconstruction of the medieval Eleanor cross at Charing, one of twelve memorial crosses erected by Edward I of England in memory of his first wife. The Victorian monument was designed by Edward Middleton Barry, also the architect of the railway station, and includes multiple statues of Queen Eleanor by the sculptor Thomas Earp. It does not occupy the original site of the Charing Cross (destroyed in 1647), which is now occupied by Hubert Le Sueur's equestrian statue of Charles I. rdf:langString

It does not occupy the original site of the Charing Cross (destroyed in 1647), which is now occupied by Hubert Le Sueur's equestrian statue of Charles I. Barry based the memorial on the three surviving drawings of the Charing Cross, in the Bodleian Library, the British Museum and the collection of the Royal Society of Antiquaries. However, due to the fragmentary nature of this evidence, he also drew from a wider range of sources including the other surviving Eleanor crosses and Queen Eleanor's tomb at Westminster Abbey. In this search for precedents Barry was assisted by his fellow architect Arthur Ashpitel. The coats of arms of England, León, Castile and Ponthieu appear on the monument.
