1877 Engraving Banquet City Dinner Feast Festival Festivity General Grant Health Lord Mayor Presentation Record Signing Proposing
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a significant moment in history - the presentation of the freedom of the city to General U. S. Grant. The image is an 1877 engraving, skillfully depicting two distinct scenes that unfolded during this grand occasion. In the first scene, we witness General Grant himself signing an important record, symbolizing his acceptance of this prestigious honor. His stoic presence exudes strength and determination, reflecting his pivotal role in shaping American history. The second scene captures a joyous banquet where festivity and celebration fill the air. The Lord Mayor takes center stage as he proposes a toast to Queen's Health, raising his glass amidst an atmosphere of camaraderie and respect. This vintage engraving beautifully encapsulates Victorian-era arts and culture with its retro-styled illustrative technique. The engravement technique used adds depth and texture to every detail, making it truly timeless. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to relive this historic event. It serves as a reminder of our collective heritage and honors those who have shaped our nations' destinies.
