Colossal statue of Lord Collingwood, at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 1845. Creator: Unknown

Colossal statue of Lord Collingwood, at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 1845. Sculpture of British naval commander Cuthbert Collingwood. This magnificent statue of the great Collingwood, the bosom friend of Nelson, has recently been completed by Mr. Lough, and is a fine specimen of the genius of that distinguished sculptor. The material is stone: height, 23 feet. It has been placed on a pedestal about 50 feet high, on a plot of ground belonging to the Duke of Northumberland, at Tynemouth, close to the place of Lord Collingwoods birth; and it is seen well from the sea....apart from his brilliant naval services, it would be difficult to point out many names on the scroll of British fame of such untarnished reputation...In command, he was firm, but mild - most considerate to the comfort and health of his men, averse to flogging, and all violent and brutal exercises of authority.... From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII
