EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured aquatint engraving captures the grandeur of the Carriage of the Duke of Palmela in Queen Victoria's coronation parade, held on June 28th, 1838. The Duke of Palmela, Pedro de Sousa Holstein, is depicted in the carriage as the Ambassador Extraordinary from the Queen of Portugal, Dona Maria II. The Duke is dressed in full regalia, wearing a tall hat adorned with feathers and a long, red robe trimmed with ermine. Standing next to the Duke is Count Sebastiani, the French Ambassador, who wears a similar outfit, but with the French tricolor cockade on his hat. The carriage is drawn by six white horses, each adorned with gold and red trappings. In the background, the panorama of the coronation procession unfolds, with various aristocrats, military personnel, and officials making their way through the streets of London. The engraving, titled "A Correct Representation of the State Procession on the Occasion of Her Majesty's Coronation," was published by Fores, Sporting and Fine Print Repository in Piccadilly, London. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the hand-colouring bring the scene to life, capturing the pomp and ceremony of the coronation day. The carriage of the Duke of Palmela, with its elegant design and regal occupants, stands out as a symbol of diplomacy and international relations during this historic event. The image offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the aristocracy during Queen Victoria's reign, making it an invaluable document of British and European history.
