EDITORS COMMENTS
This image documents the historic arrival of the grand equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellington at Hyde Park Corner in London, in the year 1846. The Duke of Wellington, a renowned military and political leader, had triumphed in the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, securing the British victory against Napoleon Bonaparte's forces. The statue, masterfully crafted by the English sculptor, Thomas Wyatt, was a monumental tribute to the hero's military prowess and political acumen. The photograph captures the statue being transported through the bustling streets of London, en route to its final destination at Hyde Park Corner. The procession was a spectacle of Victorian pomp and pageantry, with an elaborate timber framework surrounding the Wellington or Constitution Arch, designed to protect the statue during its journey. The arch, adorned with intricate architectural details, adds an air of grandeur to the scene. The Duke of Wellington's statue, now a cherished historical artifact, once stood proudly at Hyde Park Corner, becoming a symbol of British national pride and a popular tourist attraction. However, in the late 19th century, it was moved to Aldershot, Hampshire, for preservation purposes. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the awe-inspiring arrival of a national treasure.
