EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the moment when Queen Victoria, fresh on the throne following the death of her uncle King William IV, makes her first public appearance in London on November 3, 1837. The young monarch, dressed in a magnificent crimson velvet gown and diamond diadem, departs from Buckingham Palace in an open carriage, accompanied by her husband Prince Albert, to make her way to the City of London. The crowd that had gathered to catch a glimpse of their new queen is depicted in the background, their faces filled with awe and excitement. The atmosphere is electric, as the people of London eagerly anticipate the start of a new era under their young and vibrant monarch. This photograph, taken from The Mirror Vol. XXX 1837, is a testament to the enduring fascination that Queen Victoria held over her subjects throughout her long and storied reign. Her image was a constant presence in the public sphere, and this moment marks the beginning of her journey from a beloved figure to an icon. The intricate details of the image, from the ornate carriage to the elaborate costumes of the bystanders, transport us back in time to a moment of great historical significance. It is a poignant reminder of the power of a monarch to unite a nation and inspire hope and optimism for the future.
