EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by T. H. W in 1854, depicts the grand opening of the Royal Danish Railway in Flensburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The railway, built primarily by British engineers and financiers, including Samuel Morton Peto and George Parker Bidder, was completed ahead of schedule, surprising and delighting Frederick VII, King of Denmark. The monarch is seen here receiving the English railway party with great courtesy, surrounded by his staff. The platform, adorned with lush greenery and a triumphal arch bearing the king's initials and a crown, sets the stage for the celebratory occasion. A steam locomotive approaches in the distance, symbolizing the dawn of a new era in transportation. The image, published in the Illustrated London News, offers a glimpse into the industrial and architectural grandeur of the 19th century, with its intricate archways, flags, and festive decorations.
