The Cymreigyddion Festival - A Vibrant Cultural Celebration in Abergavenny, 1845

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of The Cymreigyddion Festival, a significant cultural event that took place in Abergavenny, Wales in 1845. The image showcases the grand procession through the town as participants and spectators alike gathered to celebrate Welsh literature and music. At the forefront of the procession stands Sir B. Hall, Bart. M. P. , the esteemed President of the festival, accompanied by his friends. They were warmly welcomed at the Cross on Monmouth road by members and supporters of The Cymreigyddion Society, creating an animated scene filled with excitement. One striking element is a beautifully adorned car embellished with evergreens and crowned with an exquisite plume of feathers. This eye-catching carriage also features a miniature printing press operated by two young lads dressed in traditional Welsh woollen clothes and skull caps. The festivities continued as Mr. Hopkin Morgan and Mr. James Hiley Morgan delivered their addresses both in Welsh and English while standing alongside Sir B. Hall's carriage. As this vibrant procession made its way through town, it attracted crowds who lined up along the streets to witness this remarkable display of Welsh culture unfold before their eyes. This historic photograph from "Illustrated London News" provides us with a glimpse into a time when such events brought communities together to honor their heritage through music, literature, and artistic expression—a testament to Wales' rich cultural traditions that continue to thrive today.
