A statue of Henry Irving stands near the entrance of the National Portrait Gallery in London.

[2] It was unveiled on 5 December 1910, having been funded by English actors and actresses and others related to British theatre in a campaign organised by the Irving Memorial Committee.

The Irving Society hosts a wreath-laying ceremony at the statue on 6 February each year, commemorating the actor's birth.

[3] The bronze statue, on a Portland stone pedestal, is by the sculptor Thomas Brock and is listed at Grade II.

In 1951 formal gardens were laid out around the statue, with railings bearing the monogram HI, for the Festival of Britain; these were unveiled by Laurence Olivier.
