Freddie Mercury - Montreux: The Statue Queen acquired the Montreux lakeside Mountain Recording Studios in 1978 and Freddie’s strong links with the town continued until his death. He appreciated the kindness and discretion of the townspeople and Montreux became a haven for him, his second home and the setting for his final work. A large bronze statue, standing 3 meters high, facing the lake, was unveiled five years after Freddies death by Montserrat Caballé and Freddie’s mother Jer. It was sculptured by Irena Sedlecka, the famous Czech artist now living in London. This highly colletable model is a 1/14th scale faithful reproduction of the original statue of Montreux. Made from epoxy resin and measuring 21cm high the statue comes in a bespoke gift box and is accomanied by its own Certificate Of Origin. Exclusively availalble from the Queen Online Store and the Bazar Suisse store in Montreux. All net proceeds from the sale of this merchandise will be donated to The Mercury Phoenix Trust - Fighting AIDS Worldwide Order @ queenonlinestore/Mercury-Phoenix-Trust/*/Freddie-Mercury-Montreux-The-Statue/2JAA0000076
