EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by James Dromgole Linton, we witness a momentous occasion at the Tower of London. Titled "Delivering the Keys of the Tower to the New Constable" this print transports us back to January 20,1872. The scene is filled with anticipation and grandeur as a ceremonial party gathers in front of the iconic Tower. The new constable, adorned in his official regalia, stands tall and proud as he receives the symbolic keys from an esteemed figure. This exchange signifies not only a change in leadership but also upholds centuries-old traditions that have been passed down through generations. The composition is meticulously detailed, capturing every intricate element of this historic event. From the elaborate architecture of the tower itself to the ornate uniforms worn by those present, Linton's skillful hand brings life and authenticity to this engraving. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness an important moment in London's history. We can almost hear the cheers and applause echoing through time as power changes hands within these ancient walls. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and how ceremonies like these continue to shape our understanding of tradition and authority today. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both Linton's artistic talent and historical significance behind such events at one glance.
