You thought this was bad! Now that a new sculpture of Queen Elizabeth II is being planned, how does it compare to other infamous statues?

A bronze sculpture that was intended to represent Queen Elizabeth II It had a grand opening, but sparked outrage and drew ridicule from locals.

The controversial statue created by Anto Brennan was unveiled in Northern Ireland over the weekend.

But the comments on a Facebook Posts advertising the sculpture were disabled after a series of mocking comments: one person said the Queen looked more like Mrs. Doubtfire from the 1993 comedy starring Robin Williams .

However, this is not the first statue the artist has proudly displayed to shocked onlookers demanding its removal.

Here, MailOnline looks at some of the most prized sculptures depicting famous faces, from Kate Moss to Andy Murray.

Giant heads of royalty in the garden

A man who discovered a giant 12ft terracotta head of the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip for sale loved them so much he put them in his garden.

Owner Ben Bennett found the majestic sculptures (complete with green hair) in a clean house and erected them in his Windsor garden.

After owning them for 12 years since the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, he put them up for sale for £2,000.

Prince Philip’s statue, the poorest in history

But in a less successful story, in March it was announced that a statue of Prince Philip would be torn down after the city council described it as “possibly the worst quality work” ever unveiled.

The 13ft, £150,000 bronze sculpture, called ‘The Don’, was installed to represent Prince Philip in his role as Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge University.

But the council has issued an enforcement notice for the statue to be removed due to its “harmful material impact” on the appearance of the area.

Planners refused permission to display the statue outside a new office building on Hills Road in 2014, describing it as the worst piece of public art they had ever seen.

Nadine Black, public art officer at Cambridge City Council, said it was “possibly the worst quality work ever submitted to the council”.

He added: “It is not a site-specific project, it is a work already acquired and has no relation to this site. It is too large in scale for the context of the space in which it will be located and will compromise the quality of the new development.”

The statue was originally attributed to the Uruguayan sculptor Pablo Atchugarry, but he later repudiated the piece.

Greta Thunberg’s statue has been moved to a place where it will not be seen

In 2021, the University of Winchester proudly announced a new sculpture of activist Greta Thunberg, valued at £24,000.

But locals questioned why it had been chosen, as it had no connection to the city.

Angry students called it a waste of money and he became a target for antisocial behaviour.

The statue was later moved because the university insisted on doing so in order to “provide it with a more stable pedestal”… to a much more remote location.

The infamous bust of Cristiano Ronaldo

One of the most memorable – and ridiculed – sculptures that failed to impress was the bronze bust of Cristiano Ronaldo, unveiled in 2017, which became famous around the world for its strange facial expression.

The artist Emanuel Santos, who made the bust, publicly defended his work and insisted that the Real Madrid striker liked it.

He admitted that it took him 15 days to complete the statue and that he had to work from photos of the footballer because it would have been impossible to get Ronaldo, who is “very busy”, to pose for him in person.

The Rock criticized his wax figure

When they built him a life-size wax figure of Dwayne Johnson, he was not satisfied with the result.

The Rock called for major changes after being unveiled by a French wax museum.

The 51-year-old actor took to social media to reveal he would be contacting the Grévin Museum in Paris after the controversial wax figure was heavily criticised by fans.

Dwayne and his fans have commented on the wax figure’s seemingly lighter skin tone, with the star saying he will be asking for the skin color to be “updated.”

Kate Moss loved her solid gold statue

When a golden statue of Kate Moss was unveiled, she was very excited despite the taunts from her fans.

It was once on display at the British Museum and cost over £1.5 million to make in 2008, of which £1 million was the price of 18-carat gold.

The supermodel, for some reason, was twisted like a pretzel and the artwork was called ‘Mermaid’.

But Kate herself appeared to be a fan, according to artist Marc Quinn, who said at the time: “When I showed the statue to Kate, she said she loved it.”

Andy Murray: Tennis player or medieval warrior?

The main – and only – thing Andy Murray had in common with his own statue was his characteristically solemn expression during its unveiling.

The organisers of the 2011 Rolex Masters Shanghai tournament immortalised him in terracotta for the occasion.

The statue was made to look like a warrior, rather than a tennis player, and was even given a suit of armor.
