achilles statue, the - Monument in Hyde Park, London, near Apsley House.

It was cast from cannon captured at Salamanca, Vittoria, Toulouse, and Waterloo. Erected June, 1822, the statue cost £10,000, subscribed by Englishwomen, and was dedicated to " Arthur duke of Wellington and his brave companions in arms." The statue is over 18 ft. high and, with plinth and pedestal of Dartmoor and Peterhead granite, the monument is 36 ft. in height above the road line.
