Camilla attended QIPCO British Champions Day at the Berkshire racecourse yesterday where she was assisted by members of the Greencoats to uncover the bronze statue.
They have formed the ceremonial guard for royalty at Ascot since 1744.
Designed by Tristram Lewis and erected by the Grandstand Lawn, the artwork depicts the 52-year-old Italian mounted on a horse.
It was cast by Fonderia Artista Art'u di Gaetano Salmista of Florence and Pemburys Fine Arts to act as a permanent reminder of the jockey's "unparalleled contribution" to racing.
Frankie had initially planned to retire this year but will instead move to Los Angeles with wife Catherine in December and continue racing on the US circuit and internationally.
Camilla, wearing a green dress coat by Anna Valentine, with a brooch that belonged to Queen Elizabeth, and a hat by Philip Treacy, spoke to the double-Derby winner and Mr Lewis.
