EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the Arrival of the Prince and Princess of Wales at Guildhall Yard in 1876. The future King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra are seen making their entrance into the City of London, surrounded by a cavalcade of Household Cavalry and waving Union Jack flags. Upon their arrival at Guildhall, they were greeted by a distinguished deputation comprised of Mr. Isaacs, Chairman of the Entertainment Committee, six members of the Court of Aldermen, and ten members of the Court of Common Council. The atmosphere was electric, with the crowd cheering and waving in a patriotic display of support for the royal couple. The image, published in the Illustrated London News, showcases the grandeur of the occasion with the ornate architecture of Guildhall serving as a backdrop. The horses and riders of the Household Cavalry, dressed in their finest uniforms, add to the sense of occasion and pageantry. The Prince and Princess of Wales are depicted in the center of the photograph, with the Prince gesturing to the crowd and the Princess waving gracefully. The black and white image, with its intricate engraving, transports us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the pomp and ceremony of a royal visit.
