EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the exact instance when Victoria, at just 18 years old, was informed of her ascension to the throne. The illustration, created in 1887 by WJ Gordon for "The Realm of Victoria 1837-1887" beautifully portrays this pivotal event that took place on the morning of June 20th, 1837. In this powerful image, we see Princess Victoria standing tall and composed as she receives the life-altering news from two distinguished figures: the Archbishop of Canterbury and Lord Conyngham. The weight of responsibility is palpable on her youthful shoulders as she realizes that her uncle, King William IV, has passed away and she is now Queen. The artist's attention to detail brings this historical scene to life. From Victoria's regal attire to the somber expressions on the faces of those around her, every element contributes to capturing the gravity and significance of this transformative moment. Published by Perry & Co in London to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee fifty years later, this print serves as a reminder not only of an individual monarch but also symbolizes a turning point in British history. It immortalizes a young woman who would go on to become one of Britain's longest-reigning queens and leave an indelible mark on an entire era.
