EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a historic moment during the visit of His Majesty Ahmad Shah Qajar, the Shah of Persia (Iran) to England in 1919. The image shows the Shah, dressed in traditional Persian attire, inspecting the guard of honor at Dover, marking the beginning of his official state visit. The Shah's visit was significant as it marked the first time a Persian monarch had traveled to Europe since the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1857. Accompanying the Shah was Prince Albert, later King George VI of the United Kingdom. Prince Albert had arrived at Dover to welcome the Shah and would later accompany him to London for a civic banquet at the Guildhall. The Shah's visit was met with great fanfare, and he was received with military honors, including a grand salute from the Royal Air Force. The photograph shows the Shah standing alongside the troops, inspecting their uniforms and saluting in return. The soldiers, dressed in their formal uniforms, stand at attention, presenting a proud and disciplined appearance. The scene exudes an air of grandeur and importance, reflecting the significance of the occasion. The visit by the Shah of Persia to England in 1919 marked a new era in diplomatic relations between the two countries and is an important chapter in the history of both the Qajar dynasty and the British monarchy.
