Kolkata's Marble Monument to an Empress The Victoria Memorial is a white-marble monument and museum in Kolkata, West Bengal, built between 1906 and 1921 in memory of Queen Victoria, who had died in 1901. Proposed by Viceroy Lord Curzon and designed by Sir William Emerson in the Indo-Saracenic style, it was raised in Makrana marble, the same stone as the Taj Mahal, and crowned by a bronze Angel of Victory mounted to turn with the wind.
