EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning steel engraving captures a moment of grandeur and power as Queen Victoria opens a session of parliament in the House of Lords. The intricate details of the architecture, the elaborate costumes, and the air of pomp and ceremony all come together to create a truly majestic scene.
The artist, Henry Melville, has expertly captured every nuance of this historic event, from the serious expressions on the faces of the politicians to the regal presence of Queen Victoria herself. Thomas Hosmer Shepherd's original illustration serves as a testament to his skill in depicting Victorian England with accuracy and finesse.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when politics was conducted with grace and dignity. The gravity of the occasion is palpable, reminding us that even in times gone by, leaders were held accountable for their actions before their peers.
This engraving is not just a work of art; it is a window into history that allows us to witness firsthand one of Queen Victoria's most important duties as monarch. It serves as a reminder that power comes with responsibility and that even rulers must answer to those they govern.
