EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1887, during Queen Victoria's royal tour in Ireland. The image captures a significant moment as Queen Victoria or members of her family visit Ross Castle in Killarney. Painted by the talented artist William Barnes Wollen, this illustration is part of "The Life & Times of Queen Victoria" by Robert Wilson. In this scene, we see a rowing boat gracefully gliding across the river towards Ross Castle. The castle stands proudly against the picturesque landscape of Kerry, Munster. Its fortifications exude strength and history, while its reflection shimmers on the tranquil water below. Surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty and accompanied by their entourage, the royal visitors are immersed in an enchanting journey through Irish countryside. This print not only showcases a historical event but also highlights the significance of water transport during that era. Wollen's skillful engraving technique brings depth and detail to every element within this composition – from boats sailing nearby to buildings dotting the shoreline. Through his artistry, he transports us back to a time when royalty embarked on grand tours to connect with their subjects across different regions. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can't help but be captivated by both its artistic excellence and historical context. It serves as a testament to Ireland's rich heritage and reminds us of an era long gone yet forever preserved in prints like these.
