This picture of King Robert the Bruce sculpture is the culmination of years of hard work by Mr Herriot, and the result is a truly iconic piece which will be cherished by generations of Aberdonians and admired by thousands-upon-thousands of visitors to our city.
 
Sculptor Alan Beattie Herriot added: "Seeing the sculpture in place is amazing. I hope that the people of Aberdeen like what has been done. I rather think King Robert would be very proud."
 
The total height of the statue including the plinth is 18ft 4in [5.6m].
The £120,000 statue was funded by the Common Good Fund which was originally set up by King Robert.
 
   
It stands outside the council offices in Aberdeen at Marischal Collage.
