It was commissioned by Prince Albert, executed by Thomas Thornycroft, and completed in 1905 * Notable Quotes: "If you weigh well the strengths of our armies you will see that in this battle we must conquer or die. This is a woman's resolve. As for the men, they may live or be slaves." Boudicca's story was nearly forgotten until Tacitus' work "Annals" was rediscovered in 1360. Her story became popular during the reign of another English queen who headed an army against foreign invasion, Queen Elizabeth I. Today, Boudicca is considered a national heroine in Great Briton, and she is seen as a universal symbol of the human desire for freedom and justice.
