EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a momentous event in history - The Colonial Procession passing through Trafalgar Square, with the Canadian Mounted Troops leading the way for the Premier of Canada. The image, created by William Heysham Overend, transports us back to 1897 when this grand ceremonial procession took place. The scene is filled with an air of excitement and anticipation as onlookers gather to witness this historic moment. The Canadian Mounted Troops proudly march ahead, their uniforms immaculate and horses resolute, symbolizing strength and unity. They pave the way for the esteemed Premier of Canada who follows closely behind. Trafalgar Square serves as a magnificent backdrop for this spectacle, its iconic landmarks lending an air of grandeur to the occasion. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of London's historical significance as a hub for global events. This engraving not only commemorates a significant milestone in colonial history but also highlights the strong bond between Canada and its mother country during Queen Victoria's reign. It showcases how royal celebrations brought together people from different corners of the world in joyous harmony. As we delve into this piece of artistry from Bridgeman Images' collection, our imagination takes flight; we can almost hear the cheers and applause that must have echoed through Trafalgar Square that day. It serves as a testament to both British imperialism at its height and Canada's growing prominence on the international stage within North America and beyond.
