EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the historic moment of Queen Victoria's first council meeting as Queen of Britain, held in June 1837, just weeks after her ascension to the throne at the tender age of 18. The scene is set in the grand Red Drawing Room at Buckingham Palace, where Victoria, resplendent in her white and gold coronation robes and diadem, presides over her first official council meeting. The men in attendance, dressed in their formal red coats and white waistcoats, bow respectfully as they listen intently to the young queen. The table before Victoria is adorned with an intricately embroidered tablecloth, adding to the regal atmosphere of the occasion. The room is filled with an air of solemnity and importance, as the council members discuss the pressing matters of state. This image provides a fascinating glimpse into the early days of Victoria's reign, a time of transition and change in British history. The profile view of the queen, with her serious expression and steady gaze, conveys a sense of determination and resolve. It is a powerful reminder of Victoria's strength and leadership during her long and eventful reign, which would last for over 63 years. This historic moment marks the beginning of a new era in British history, and this print offers a unique and captivating perspective on this important chapter in the monarchy's story.
