EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1844, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion in British history. The image captures the grandeur of an archway erected in honor of Queen Victoria during her stay at Burghley House in Lincolnshire. As the procession passes under the arch, crowds line the streets with patriotic fervor. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and excitement as soldiers march alongside the queen's military escort. The engraving, originally featured in "Illustrated London News" showcases not only architectural beauty but also reflects the deep-rooted patriotism that characterized Victorian Britain. Amidst this historical backdrop, one cannot help but notice a sign proclaiming "God Bless the Queen" symbolizing both reverence and loyalty towards their beloved monarch. This visual testament to national pride evokes feelings of admiration for Queen Victoria's reign as Empress of India and her role as Queen of Great Britain and Ireland. The unknown creator behind this remarkable photograph has captured a pivotal moment when architecture meets celebration, war meets triumph, and people unite to welcome their queen. Preserved by Heritage Images, this print serves as a reminder of our rich heritage while offering us an opportunity to reflect on our collective past.
