Captured by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving showcases the grandeur and excitement surrounding a royal visit to Bradford. The image transports us to a bustling bazaar filled with sketches of various scenes from the visit. In the foreground, we see a procession of elegantly dressed individuals, including princesses and members of royalty, making their way through the crowd. A magnificent triumphal arch stands tall behind them, symbolizing their triumphant arrival. As we explore further into the print, our eyes are drawn to a bonfire illuminating the night sky and fireworks bursting with vibrant colors overhead. The atmosphere is electric as people gather around to witness this extraordinary occasion. Intriguingly, there is also an ascent taking place - a ceremonial balloon ride that adds an element of adventure and wonderment to this royal visit. It seems everyone is captivated by this spectacle as they bow respectfully towards their royal highnesses. The scene extends beyond just one location; it encompasses Lister Park on top of a hill where Mrs Langtry awaits alongside other notable figures from Bradford's society. From Saltaire to Yorkshire, every corner seems touched by this celebration. This print not only captures historical significance but also evokes feelings of awe and admiration for these esteemed guests who have graced Bradford with their presence. It serves as a timeless reminder of how
