When Louise sculpted a statue of the Queen , portraying her in Coronation robes , the press claimed that her tutor , Sir Edgar Boehm , was the true creator of the work . The claim was denied by Louise 's friends , who asserted her effort and independence . The work was intended to be exhibited in 1887 , but production was delayed until 1893 . A memorial to her brother @-@ in @-@ law , Prince Henry of Battenberg , and a memorial to the Colonial soldiers who fell during the Boer War , reside at Whippingham Church on the Isle of Wight , and another statue of Queen Victoria remains at McGill University in Montreal .
