EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in history - the opening of the Royal Holloway College for Women by Queen Victoria. The image showcases the royal party leaving the chapel after a religious ceremony, with all its grandeur and elegance. The scene depicts Queen Victoria, accompanied by her royal entourage, including His Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness. Dressed in their finest attire, they exude regal grace as they exit the chapel. The queen's presence adds an air of importance to this milestone event. The interior of the chapel is beautifully depicted, showcasing intricate architectural details and ornate decorations. It serves as a symbol of education and enlightenment for women during that era. The opening of this prestigious educational institution marked a turning point for women's education in England. It provided opportunities for women to pursue higher learning and expand their horizons beyond traditional societal roles. This engraving was originally published in The Graphic on July 10th, 1886, capturing public interest at that time. Today, it remains an invaluable historical document that celebrates progress towards gender equality in education. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection so that future generations can appreciate its significance and reflect upon how far we have come since then.
