The Queen at Derby - A Historic Moment Captured in Time
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Queen at Derby" takes us back to a significant event that unfolded on May 30,1891. The image showcases an engraving by the English School of the time, depicting a ceremonial moment during Her Majesty's visit to Derby. In this remarkable scene, we witness the town clerk of Derby presenting a silver gilt trowel to Lieutenant Colonel W. Addis Delacombe. This symbolic gesture marks the laying of the foundation stone for what appears to be an important building or monument. Surrounding them are prominent figures such as politicians, the chief constable of Derby, and even Lady Seale Haslam. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation as everyone gathers around Queen Victoria herself. Dressed regally in her elegant attire, she graciously accepts a casket made of gold from Mr. H. F Gadsby – perhaps containing precious mementos or tokens symbolizing the occasion. The photograph captures not only the historical significance but also highlights intricate details like ivory chairs and a Henri Quatre chair reserved for royalty. It offers us a glimpse into an era when grand ceremonies were meticulously planned and executed with utmost precision. This stunning print serves as both a visual testament to our rich history and an invitation for us to delve deeper into this extraordinary moment that forever etched itself into Derby's legacy.
