EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Queen Victoria proudly opens the newly completed St. Thomas Hospital in Lambeth, London, on the southern Thames Embankment. The Queen had laid the foundation stone for the hospital in May 1868, and it had taken three years to construct this magnificent building. The hospital, situated across the river from the Palace of Westminster, was a significant addition to the city's medical infrastructure. St. Thomas Hospital had a long and distinguished history, dating back to the Middle Ages, and this new building was a testament to the hospital's commitment to providing the best possible care for its patients. The hospital was renowned for its pioneering work in medical research and training, and its reputation attracted medical professionals from around the world. The opening ceremony was a grand affair, with dignitaries, doctors, nurses, and patients gathered to witness the Queen's arrival. The Queen was greeted with applause and cheers as she inspected the hospital's facilities, including the operating theatre, wards, and laboratories. She was particularly interested in the hospital's new X-ray machine, which was a groundbreaking innovation at the time. The photograph captures the sense of excitement and anticipation in the air as the Queen performs the official opening ceremony, symbolizing the hospital's renewed commitment to advancing medical knowledge and providing compassionate care to the people of London and beyond. This image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the history of St. Thomas Hospital and the medical world of the late 19th century.
