EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness a remarkable moment in history as Queen Elizabeth II graces China with her presence during a state visit to Peking on October 13th, 1986. The image captures the Queen at a banquet, where she finds herself being handed chopsticks to partake in an exotic delicacy - sea slugs. The Queen's facial expression tells a story of intrigue mixed with slight unease as she contemplates the unfamiliar utensils and the unusual dish before her. Her glasses perched upon her regal nose add an air of intellectual curiosity to her gaze. This snapshot not only showcases royalty abroad but also highlights cultural exchange between East and West. As one of the most iconic figures in modern history, Queen Elizabeth II's visits overseas were always highly anticipated events. However, it is evident that this particular encounter left an indelible impression on Her Majesty's face – perhaps due to the stark contrast between British cuisine and Chinese culinary customs. This photograph serves as a reminder of the power of photography to capture fleeting moments frozen in time. It transports us back to a significant era in global relations and offers us a glimpse into the personal experiences of one of Britain's most revered monarchs.
