Maiwand Lion

The Maiwand Lion is a large bronze Victorian war memorial set on a raised plinth in The Forbury Gardens—an iconic sculptural subject for architectural and historical portraits, close-up texture studies, and environmental shots with the surrounding lawns and mature trees. Free public access; no entry fee. Best light at golden hour (sunrise or late afternoon) for warm tones and long shadows; blue hour and low-light scenes work well for mood. Gardens are flat and wheelchair-accessible; on-street/Le
