London: Colin Firth’s famous wet white shirt scene in the BBC adaptation of Jane Austen’s classic novel “Pride and Prejudice” has been immortalised in the shape of a 12-feet sculpture of the romantic hero.

The fibre-glass made sculpture took a team of three sculptors more than two months to design, construct and paint. The statue is equivalent to the height of a double decker bus. “We took Colin Firth’s famous lake scene as a starting point for creating Mr Darcy… The challenge for us was capturing the spirit of Darcy as handsome and noble but also aloof and proud. The Mr Darcy sculpture is a real mix of the many portrayals of Jane Austen’s most famous hero,” said Toby Crowther, lead sculptor. PTI
