EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the Arrival of Queen Victoria at Kelso, Scotland in 1887. Illustrated by the talented artist William Barnes Wollen, this scene is taken from "The Life & Times of Queen Victoria" by Robert Wilson. In this enchanting image, we see Queen Victoria, the revered monarch of Great Britain and Ireland, making her grand entrance into Kelso. The landscape surrounding her is picturesque, with Kelso Abbey standing proudly in the background. Accompanied by a regiment of hussars on horseback, Her Majesty's arrival evokes a sense of regality and importance. The procession moves along a country road as the queen's carriage glides through the Scottish borders. People line up to catch a glimpse of their beloved sovereign while horses graze peacefully nearby. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and excitement as religious symbols dotting the landscape hint at the significance of this royal event. Queen Victoria herself exudes grace and power as she takes center stage amidst this historical moment captured beautifully in monochrome. This print serves as an exquisite reminder not only of Victorian-era transport but also highlights women's influence during that time period. With its attention to detail and skillful engraving technique, William Barnes Wollen has created an enduring piece that transports us back to 19th-century Britain - an era defined by royalty, tradition, and societal change.
