EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1897, when Chichester was brimming with excitement and jubilation. Standing tall in all its glory is the magnificent Jubilee Arch, a symbol of pride and celebration during Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee festivities. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported to a time when local communities came together to honor their beloved monarch. The view looking east captures the essence of Victorian England, with its charming architecture and bustling streets. The arch itself is an architectural marvel, adorned with intricate details that reflect the grandeur of the era. It serves as a reminder of how important these celebrations were for both royalty and commoners alike. This photograph evokes feelings of nostalgia as we imagine ourselves amidst the crowd that gathered on that momentous day. We can almost hear the cheers and applause reverberating through time, as people young and old celebrated their queen's remarkable reign. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Photographic Collection at the esteemed West Sussex Record Office, this image offers us a glimpse into our local history. It reminds us of our roots and connects us to those who walked these very streets over a century ago. As we admire this piece of living history, let it serve as a testament to our enduring fascination with days gone by – an everlasting tribute to Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee event that forever left its mark on Chichester's collective memory.
