EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and significance of the State Opening of Parliament in 19th century England. The engraving, created by an anonymous English artist, showcases a momentous event that took place at the heart of London. The image transports us to Whitehall, where we witness a bustling street scene filled with anticipation and excitement. The magnificent Parliament buildings stand tall in the background, symbolizing power and governance. In the foreground, we see a majestic state procession making its way towards the House of Lords. Members of royalty are present, including Queen Victoria herself, accompanied by her royal entourage. Dressed in regal attire, they exude elegance and authority as they prepare for this ceremonial occasion. All eyes are on Her Majesty as she prepares to deliver her speech from the throne within the House of Lords. This annual tradition holds great importance as it sets out the government's agenda for the coming year. The atmosphere is electric with celebration and festivity; it is truly a remarkable sight to behold. This print serves as a timeless reminder of our rich history and political heritage. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this historic moment through their fine art collection.
