Created by the Royal Mint in 2005 and issued in a limited edition Windswept and defiant this very modern Britannia stands alert on the watery edge of the realm, ready and watchful over her homeland. The sculptor George William De Saulles' portait of Britannia which appeared on florins of Edward VII in 1902 was the inspiration for the Britannin figurine and appears on her shield. Recognisable with trident in hand, shield at the ready and wearing a warrior's helmer, Britannia is captured in a stiring pose, a depiction that conveys the sense of a moment caught in time. Created in cast resin and painstakingly finished by hand, each delicately modelled figurine truly embodies the spirit of a people and the identity of a nation. Acclaimed as a classic of low relief sculpture, George William De Saulles' design captured the beauty and strength of Britannia. 33cm high & standing on a marble base and comes with the Royal Mint certificate. limited edition of 0335/2500.
