EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in Sri Lanka's history - The Queen's Royal visit to the country from 21st to 25th October 1981. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II graced Sri Lanka with her presence twice, first in 1953 and then again in 1981. During her second visit, she attended the grand celebrations commemorating 50 years of universal adult franchise in the nation. The image showcases a vibrant ceremony where dancers adorned with torches mesmerize onlookers. Their graceful movements illuminate the night as they pay homage to this significant event. This particular snapshot was taken on the memorable day of 24th October 1981. Sri Lanka's relationship with Britain has always been multifaceted, covering various aspects such as culture, politics, and commerce. Over time, British commercial interests have transitioned from plantations to industry within Sri Lanka. Mike Maloney expertly captured this historic moment through his lens for Memory Lane Prints. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder of an extraordinary royal visit that left an indelible mark on both nations' histories.
