EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a historic moment in time. It captures the enchanting encounter between two icons of their respective fields - The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh, alongside football legend Pele at the legendary Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Dated 13th November 1968, this image showcases the power of sport to bring people together across borders and cultures. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip proudly donning hats as they engage with Pele on his home turf. Their visit to South America was not only a state affair but also an opportunity for them to witness firsthand the passion that football ignites within its fans. The regal presence of The Queen is juxtaposed against the vibrant energy exuded by Pele, who undoubtedly left an indelible impression on both royals during their meeting. This photograph serves as a testament to how sports transcend boundaries and unite individuals from all walks of life.
