EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide captures a moment from Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations in London, 1897. The image shows Princess Louise, the Princess Royal, and her mother's German consort, Empress Frederick, riding in a horse-drawn carriage through the bustling crowds of Green Park. The scene is set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, an era of grand pageantry and royal tradition. Queen Victoria, who reigned from 1837 to 1901, marked her 60th anniversary on the throne with a series of elaborate celebrations throughout the United Kingdom. The Diamond Jubilee was an occasion for the British people to express their loyalty and affection for their long-reigning monarch. Princess Louise, the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria, was a popular figure in her own right. She was known for her beauty, intelligence, and artistic talents. Empress Frederick, born Princess Frederick of Prussia, was Queen Victoria's first cousin and had been married to the Prince Consort since 1858. The horse-drawn carriage, adorned with royal insignia, makes its way through the large crowds that lined the streets of London, eager to catch a glimpse of the royal procession. The atmosphere is festive, filled with excitement and joy. The image is a testament to the enduring power of tradition and the deep connection between the monarchy and the people of Britain during this period in history. This lantern slide, number 15 of Box 259, is a valuable historical document that offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the grand celebrations of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.
