EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a momentous occasion in history - The German Emperors Visit to the Crystal Palace. Created by the talented artist William Heysham Overend, this print showcases a significant event that took place on July 18,1891. In this scene, we witness the grandeur of royalty as Wilhelm II of Germany visits London's iconic Crystal Palace. The emperor's arrival is met with great excitement and anticipation from both the public and emergency services alike. As he reviews the fire brigades stationed at the palace, it becomes evident that even in times of celebration, safety remains a top priority. The image beautifully portrays the harmonious blend of royalty and emergency services coming together for this special occasion. It serves as a reminder that even those in positions of power recognize and appreciate the vital role played by these brave men and women who risk their lives daily to protect others. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment when two worlds collide - one filled with opulence and regality, while another embodies selflessness and dedication. This artwork not only commemorates an important visit but also pays tribute to all those who serve tirelessly in our emergency services.
