Description
Interpretation of the statue of Boudica, by Thomas Thornycroft, standing near Westminster Pier, London. Between 61 A.D. and 63 A.D. Queen Boadicea (or, originally, Boudica) led her Iceni tribesmen in battle against the Romans in the east of Britain. Her campaigns almost defeated the Romans who were not yet fully established in the province. Ultimately, however, the Iceni were defeated by sheer force of arms. Nonetheless, Boudica remains one of the great heroines of British history.
