What are The Queen's Beasts?
When Her Majesty The Queen was crowned on June 2nd, 1953, ten heraldic beast statues
stood guard outside the coronation ceremony in Westminster Abbey.
The Queen's Beasts, as they are known, are a series of statues that were commissioned
by the British Ministry of Works and sculpted by James Woodford RA.
Standing at six foot high and cast in plaster, the ten statues depict the genealogy of The Queen,
with each of the heraldic beasts symbolizing the various strands of The Queen's royal ancestry;
- the Lion of England
- the Griffin of Edward III
- the Falcon of the Plantagenets
- the Black Bull of Clarence
- the Yale of Beaufort
- the White Lion of Mortimer
- the White Greyhound of Richmond
- the Red Dragon of Wales
- the Unicorn of Scotland
- the White Horse of Hanover.
