The Queen’s Beasts heraldic statues representing the genealogy of Queen Elizabeth II stood in front of the temporary western annexe to Westminster Abbey for the Queen’s coronation in 1953. Each of The Queen’s Beasts consists of an heraldic beast supporting a shield bearing a badge or arms of a family associated with the ancestry of Queen Elizabeth II. They were commissioned by the British Ministry of Works from sculptor James Woodford. The statues were uncoloured except for their shields at the coronation. They are now on display in the Canadian Museum of History. There are other statues of the Queen’s Beasts, sometimes referred to as the King’s Beasts, at Hampton Court Palace and Kew Gardens in London, and on the roof of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.
