Situated in Kolkata, the Victoria Memorial is a white marble building surrounded by a sprawling garden. Designed by Sir William Emerson in an architectural style similar to Belfast City Hall, a black bronze Angel of Victory, holding a bugle in her hand, sits at the apex of the dome above the Memorial. It was built by British Viceroy Lord Curzon in the memory of Queen Victoria in the Italian Renaissance style with elements of Mughal architecture incorporated in it. It currently serves as a museum and a tourist attraction. Built between 1906 and 1921, it is situated at the southern end of the Maidan.
