“ Sr. J. Banks ” and “ Lady Banks,” they cannot be earher than that 
date. Said to have been modelled by John Flaxman, R.A.

Statue, etc. 
“ In July of the same year (1820) the Council of the Royal Society 
resolved to erect a full-length marble statue of Sir Joseph Banks, to be 
executed by Mr. (afterwards Sir Francis) Chantrey. A sum of £2,000 
was subscribed, of which £525 was paid to the sculptor, the surplus 
being devoted to an engraving of the statue, copies of which were 
distributed to various institutions and individuals. The monument 
now stands in the Natural History Department of the British Museum.”
