There is a marked lack of statues in Cair Paravel; dignitaries and visitors are always a little baffled by Narnia's aversion to sculptures, but the monarchs' smiles thin at such questions and conversation always changes fast when they come up.
To be fair, there were very few statues at all in Narnia after the Witch's reign ended; sure, there were some old ones still, but Jadis had taken a sick glee in destroying monuments to the past just so she could put some poor petrified soul up in the statue's place, as a warning to those who would disobey.
For people like Mister Tumnus, the loss of three dimensional art was more of a blessing than sorrow; after all, no one liked to be reminded of their limbs going stiff, the chill creeping through their chest, and finally their last breath before their lungs stopped working.
