EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration showcases the grandeur and historical significance of The New Royal Courts of Justice on Lord Mayor's Day in 1882. The New Royal Courts of Justice, located on the Strand in Westminster, London, marked a new era in the English legal system with its opening in 1882. Designed by George Edmund Street in a striking Gothic Revival style, this architectural masterpiece replaced the outdated and cramped Old Bailey as the home of the High Court of Justice and the Court of Appeal. The illustration depicts the newly opened courthouse in all its glory, with banners and flags flying high, and a large crowd gathered in celebration. The intricate details of the building's exterior are on full display, from the ornate carvings and gargoyles to the pointed arches and flying buttresses. The illustration also captures the bustling energy of the day, with horse-drawn carriages and people milling about in the foreground. The New Royal Courts of Justice was a symbol of progress and modernization in the legal system, and its opening was a cause for great celebration. The illustration serves as a reminder of the rich history and tradition of the English legal system, and the importance of the rule of law in our society. This illustration, taken on Lord Mayor's Day in 1882, is a testament to the grandeur and significance of The New Royal Courts of Justice, and a fascinating glimpse into the past. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in law, history, or architecture, and a beautiful addition to any home or office decor.
