EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured aquatint engraving captures the grandeur of the Carriage of the Prince of Ligne in Queen Victoria's coronation parade on June 28, 1838. The Prince of Ligne, Eugène François Charles Joseph Lamoral de Ligne, Duc d'Arenberg et d'Epinoy, represented King Leopold I, the first King of Belgium, during the historic event. The Prince, dressed in full regalia, sits proudly in the carriage, which is adorned with intricate designs and gold accents. The Russian Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary, Count Sergei Grigoryevich Stroganoff, is shown riding alongside the carriage, adding to the panoply of pomp and ceremony. The Count represented Emperor Nicholas I of Russia at the coronation. The engraving, published by Fores, Sporting and Fine Print Repository in Piccadilly, London, offers a correct representation of the state procession, providing a detailed panorama of the occasion. The aquatint technique allows for a rich and textured image, capturing the fine details of the carriage, the Prince's attire, and the expressions of the onlookers lining the streets. The Prince of Ligne was a prominent figure in European aristocracy, and his presence at Queen Victoria's coronation added to the international significance of the event. This beautiful and intricately detailed image offers a glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of the coronation parade and the role of the aristocracy in European history.
