EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - Queen Victoria receiving the Guards at Buckingham Palace in 1857. The artist, G Greatbach, skillfully depicts the grandeur of this royal event, showcasing the monarch's regal presence amidst a sea of soldiers and horses. The scene takes us back to the aftermath of the Crimean War, as the Guards return from their valiant efforts abroad. The bravery and heroism displayed by these men is palpable as they cheer and wave their hats in honor of their queen. Clad in traditional military attire with bearskin busbies atop their heads, they stand tall with weapons at hand. Queen Victoria herself stands on a balcony overlooking her loyal subjects, dressed elegantly in Victorian fashion. Her sovereign status is undeniable as she graciously receives her guardsmen while maintaining an air of authority. The architectural beauty of Buckingham Palace serves as a majestic backdrop for this historic moment. Its grandeur complements the significance of this occasion perfectly. In this monochrome engraving from "England's Battles by Sea and Land". G Greatbach masterfully captures not only a specific event but also conveys a sense of national pride and unity during 19th-century Britain. This print truly pays homage to Queen Victoria's reign and immortalizes her role as Queen of Great Britain and Ireland during one of its most challenging periods.
