The statue of David Livingstone in East Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh, is a 1876 work by Amelia Robertson Hill.
The bronze sculpture depicts David Livingstone wearing a cloak and haversack.[1] He is holding a Bible and has a pistol and compass at his waist.[1] The lion skin represents the time when he survived being attacked by a lion.[1] The statue is next to the Scott Monument.
