EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the stately presence of Queen Victoria under an intricately decorated archway on Blackfriars Bridge in London, circa 1900. The bridge, which spans the River Thames between Waterloo Bridge and Blackfriars Railway Bridge, is adorned with an elegant archway in honor of the Queen's Tour of the Colonies. The monarch, dressed in her regal attire and wearing her iconic crown, gazes proudly at the crowd below. Blackfriars Bridge, a significant road and foot traffic bridge, is an essential connection between the Inns of Court and Temple Church to the north and the Tate Modern art gallery and the Oxo Tower to the south. The bridge's north end is steeped in history, with its proximity to the ancient Temple Church and the bustling Blackfriars station. The south end, on the other hand, is a modern hub of culture and creativity, with the contemporary Tate Modern and the iconic Oxo Tower. The Tour of the Colonies was a series of events held in London to celebrate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897, marking her 60 years on the British throne. This photograph is a testament to the grandeur and pageantry of the occasion, as well as the enduring symbolism of the monarchy and its connection to the British colonies around the world.
