Return of the Guards from Crimea - A Historic Homecoming
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting the triumphant return of the Guards from Crimea. The engraving, created by Robert Thomas Landells in 1856, beautifully illustrates this joyous occasion that was immortalized in The Illustrated London News. The scene is set on a moonlit night on Parliament Street in London, where an exuberant crowd eagerly awaits the arrival of their beloved soldiers. As torches illuminate the street and bonfires burn brightly, anticipation fills the air. The military precision and grandeur are evident as members of the 90th Regiment march proudly through cheering crowds towards their long-awaited reunion with loved ones. This image serves as a poignant reminder of England's involvement in the Crimean War and its impact on both soldiers and civilians alike. It symbolizes not only victory but also relief for those who have endured separation and uncertainty during this tumultuous time. Landells' meticulous attention to detail transports us back to that historic moment when national pride swelled within every heart witnessing this spectacle. Through his artistry, we can almost hear cheers echoing through London's streets as families embrace their returning heroes. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, it serves as a testament to bravery, sacrifice, and resilience—a timeless tribute to those who served their country with unwavering dedication.
