EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in the rich history of London's Royal Albert Hall. The image shows Queen Victoria, dressed in her regal attire, laying the foundation stone of the iconic structure on the 21st of May, 1867. The Queen is depicted standing proudly over a mound of earth, holding a hammer in her right hand, ready to strike the stone. Surrounding her are various dignitaries and officials, all dressed in their finest attire, looking on with admiration and respect. The Royal Albert Hall was built as a tribute to Prince Albert, Queen Victoria's beloved husband, who had passed away in 1861. The Hall was designed to be a venue for the promotion of arts and sciences, and its construction was a labor of love for the Queen. The architectural design of the Hall was overseen by a committee, with the final plans being drawn up by Captain Francis Fowke RN. The foundation stone laid by Queen Victoria was an important milestone in the construction of the Royal Albert Hall. The event was widely reported in the press, with many commenting on the Queen's dedication to the project and her commitment to preserving her husband's memory. The Hall was eventually completed in 1871 and has since become one of London's most iconic landmarks, attracting visitors from all over the world. This engraving is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insights into the people and events that shaped the Royal Albert Hall. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert and their commitment to promoting arts and culture in London.
