<dc:description>The Victoria Memorial is a building that was constructed in 1921. The building is made of white marble and measures 109m. It has been often described as a veritable icon of the city of Kolkata. The Victoria Memorial was constructed to serve and be dedicated to the memory of Queen Victoria and stands as an architectural gem but also reminiscence to the rule of the British Crown.

In terms of the design, the design was conducted by William Emerson who was the chief architect behind Victoria Memorial and the design showcases the Indo-Saracenic Revivalist template. It fuses several Mughal and British architectural elements with touches of Egyptian and Venetian styles, along with architectural influences
