Calvary of the Empire | London 2024 | Snugug Photography

The image shows a bronze statue of a knight on horseback, set against a backdrop of a park with autumnal trees in the background. The knight is standing on a platform, holding a sword aloft, with the horse's head turned towards the viewer. There is a plaque on the platform in front of the statue, which reads: "Erected by the Cavalry of the Empire, in memory of comrades who gave their lives in the war 1914 1919, also in the war 1939 1945 and on active service thereafter." There are three other plaques on either side of the statue’s platform, with the words "Cavalry" on the left and "Empire" on the right. The plaques are filled with the names of individuals. The statue and plaques appear to be a war memorial. The image was taken on a cloudy day and the trees are mostly bare, with some brown leaves on the ground. The image is taken from a slightly low angle, looking up at the statue. — Calvary of the Empire
