EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the procession of Marie de Medici along Cheapside in the City of London. The French Queen's visit to King Charles I and her daughter Henrietta Maria was a grand affair, as depicted by the bustling crowd and elaborate entourage seen here. As they make their way down Cheapside, two significant landmarks come into view - the iconic Cheapside Cross at the center and the Great Conduit on the right. The Cheapside Cross holds great historical significance, being one of twelve Eleanor crosses erected by King Edward I in memory of his beloved wife Eleanor of Castile. Its tall stature commands attention amidst this lively scene. On the other side, we catch a glimpse of the Great Conduit, an ingenious waterworks system that brought drinking water from Tyburn to quench Londoners' thirst. This image beautifully encapsulates 17th-century architecture and street life in Britain. The horse-drawn vehicles add an air of elegance to this picturesque avenue while soldiers stand guard, symbolizing power and protection during times of war. It is truly remarkable how this 19th-century print transports us back in time to witness such pageantry and royal splendor. Thanks to Heritage Images for preserving this extraordinary piece of history for generations to come.
