EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment the Pera, a magnificent steam-powered vessel, sets sail from Southampton Harbor in August 1858, bound for Cherbourg Fetes. The Pera was a unique ship, renowned for its size and elegance, and it was an honor for the Members of Parliament to be aboard for this historic occasion. The Cherbourg Fetes were a grand naval review organized to celebrate a rare meeting between Queen Victoria and the Emperor and Empress of France, Napoleon III and Eugénie. The event took place in the English Channel, off the coast of Cherbourg, France. The Pera, along with an impressive fleet of ships from both the British and French navies, gathered to pay tribute to the monarchs' significant diplomatic achievement. In the image, the Pera can be seen leaving Southampton Solent, with its impressive funnel billowing smoke and its elegant silhouette standing out against the backdrop of the tranquil sea. The Members of Parliament, dressed in their formal attire, can be seen on the deck, waving to the crowds that had gathered to bid them farewell. The excitement and anticipation of the journey are palpable, as the Pera embarks on its journey across the English Channel towards the Cherbourg Fetes. This photograph is a testament to the grandeur and pageantry of the Victorian era, as well as the significance of diplomacy and international relations during this time. It is a fascinating glimpse into history, offering a glimpse into the past and the events that shaped the world as we know it today.
