EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the grandeur of London in 1900, showcasing the iconic Houses of Parliament. As we gaze upon this architectural masterpiece, we are transported to a time when the House of Lords and the House of Commons convened within these historic walls to shape British politics. The image captures the imposing Victorian Gothic structure that is known as The Palace of Westminster, standing proudly on the banks of River Thames. Its intricate towers and spires reach towards the sky, creating an awe-inspiring silhouette against the backdrop of a bustling city. Intriguingly engraved by Robert Wilson for "The life and times of Queen Victoria" this print offers us a glimpse into both history and artistry. The monochrome palette adds depth and drama to every detail, emphasizing the magnificence of this landmark. As our eyes wander across the scene, we notice boats gracefully gliding along River Thames, symbolizing not only transportation but also connecting us with England's rich maritime heritage.

With its meticulous attention to detail and historical significance, this print serves as a testament to both past glory and enduring legacy.
