Anniversary Battle Of Inkerman Celebration Celebrations Cheering Colours Cover Front Cover Frontpage Guards Parade Salute Saluting The Graphic Veteran Veterans Queens Guard

EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing black and white print commemorating a significant historical event. The image, from "The Graphic. An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper," Volume 42, July to December, 1890, captures the excitement and jubilation of a military celebration. The cover features a large gathering of people, both men and women, gathered around a grand parade. In the foreground, a group of soldiers, part of the Queen's Guard, stand at attention, their rifles at the ready. They are saluting, while behind them, other soldiers march in formation. The crowd cheers and waves, some even climbing onto the shoulders of others to get a better view. The occasion for this grand display of military might and civilian support was the anniversary of the Battle of Inkerman, a pivotal moment in the Crimean War. The battle took place on November 5, 1854, and the victory secured by the British and French forces against the Russian army was a significant one. The print serves as a testament to the patriotic spirit of the Victorian era, with the black and white palette adding to the sense of history and solemnity. The image also highlights the role of the press in documenting and celebrating important events, making it a valuable historical artifact. The creator of the print is unknown, but it is a powerful reminder of the past and the role that military victories played in shaping the identity of Britain during the 19th century. The image is a must-have for any collection focused on military history, Victorian era, or the history of newspapers and print media.
