The Procession in Smithfield passing the Metropolitan Meat Market
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. This detailed print, part of a private collection, captures a vibrant scene filled with life and activity. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the grand procession making its way through Smithfield. The streets are lined with enthusiastic crowds as they eagerly await the arrival of royalty. Queen Victoria herself can be seen seated atop a magnificent horse, accompanied by her royal entourage. The architecture surrounding them showcases the rich history and grandeur of the City of London. As our eyes wander through this lively street scene, we cannot help but notice an array of animals adding to the spectacle. Horses gallop alongside racehorses and ponies, their powerful presence contrasting with their more gentle counterparts like shire horses and stallions. These farm animals bring an element of rustic charm to this urban setting. Amidst all this commotion, one cannot ignore the significance of Metropolitan Meat Market looming in the background. It serves as a reminder that even amidst celebrations and pageantry, daily life continues - commerce thrives and sustains society. This remarkable engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us glimpses into various aspects that shaped Victorian England - from royalty to markets, from transport to wildlife. It truly transports us back in time while reminding us how history intertwines with everyday life.
