EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Henry Gillard Glindoni takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London in 1890. The scene depicts the iconic Changing of the Guards ceremony at St James's Palace, a spectacle that continues to captivate visitors from around the world even today. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are immediately drawn to the grandeur of St James's Palace itself. Its magnificent architecture stands tall and proud, providing a majestic backdrop for this historic event. The surrounding buildings add to the charm and character of this vibrant cityscape. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the crowd gathered eagerly to witness this ceremonial tradition unfold before their eyes. Men, women, and children alike have come together in anticipation, dressed in their finest attire - a true reflection of Victorian fashion. Amidst all this excitement, we catch glimpses of soldiers meticulously performing their duties with precision and grace. Their uniforms shine brightly against the backdrop as they march in unison, showcasing unwavering discipline. Glindoni skillfully captures both the energy and reverence that surround this popular London spectacle through his intricate engravings. This print serves not only as a visual feast but also as a reminder of how traditions can transcend time and continue to enchant generations.
