EDITORS COMMENTS
Nelson Day: Scene in Trafalgar Square, London, 1895 (c1900) captures a moment in history as the city of Westminster in London came alive with commemoration for the ninetieth anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar. The iconic Nelson Column, a towering monument dedicated to Admiral Horatio Nelson, stood proudly in the heart of the square, adorned with an abundance of wreaths and floral tributes. The column, a symbol of British pride and victory, was a popular tourist attraction, drawing crowds of people from all walks of life. In the photograph, children in clothing reminiscent of the era, dressed in sailor suits and dresses, gather around the base of the column, taking in the sight. Men in various occupations, including a policeman and a sailor, join the celebration, their uniforms adding to the vibrant scene. The architectural backdrop of Trafalgar Square, with its grand buildings and intricate details, serves as a stunning contrast to the natural elements of the flora and fauna. The print, a testament to the historical significance of the day, was published in Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX by Cassell and Company, Limited. The engraving, a beautiful black and white representation of the event, captures the essence of the occasion and provides a glimpse into the past.
