EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment as Queen Victoria invests Abdul Aziz, the Sultan of Turkey, with the prestigious Order of the Garter in 1867. Created by renowned artist William Barnes Wollen, this illustration is part of "The Life & Times of Queen Victoria" by Robert Wilson. In this scene, we witness the grandeur and elegance surrounding a royal event. Queen Victoria stands tall and regal in her exquisite Victorian dress while bestowing this esteemed honor upon Sultan Abdul Aziz. The order's insignia adorns her gown as she gracefully places it on his shoulder. The image showcases not only the monarch's power but also highlights an important diplomatic relationship between Britain and Turkey during the 19th century. The presence of ships in the background symbolizes transportation and trade connections between these two nations. Wollen's masterful engraving technique brings depth to every detail, emphasizing both male and female figures present at this historic occasion. This monochrome portrayal adds a timeless quality to the print, capturing an era when royalty held great influence over their countries. As viewers gaze upon this remarkable artwork, they are transported back to a time when tradition, ceremony, and diplomacy shaped international relations. It serves as a reminder of how art can preserve moments that have shaped our world today.
