The Magna Carta barons in the Chamber of the House of Lords are electrotyped bronze (or copper?) sculptures, cast by Elkington & Co. in Birmingham around 1860. They are life-sized, and placed between the windows, inside the Chamber of the House of Lords, in the Houses of Parliament, London, England. They represent sixteen barons and two bishops who signed Magna Carta in 1215 AD, and were created by nine prominent sculptors of the 19th century.
Fifteen of the life-sized plaster maquettes, made in preparation for the castings, are in the collection of Canterbury Museum Service, Kent, England.
