EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 17th century print captures the bustling scene of Cheapside in the City of London during a significant historical moment. The north-east view shows the iconic Cheapside Cross and Conduit, both important landmarks in the area. The occasion for this grand procession was the visit of the renowned European royalty, Maria de' Medici, Queen Consort of France, and her daughter Henrietta Maria to England. Accompanied by her son-in-law, King Charles I, the royal party made their way through the crowded streets of London, drawing the attention and admiration of the city's residents. The print offers a glimpse into the grandeur and opulence of the royal procession, with elaborately decorated carriages, horse-drawn litters, and retinues of attendants and guards. The elegant figures of the royals can be seen in the foreground, dressed in the finest fabrics and adorned with jewels, as they make their way towards the Cross and Conduit. The Cheapside Cross, a symbol of religious devotion, stands tall in the background, surrounded by the vibrant marketplace activity. The Conduit, a public water fountain, is also visible, providing much-needed refreshment to the thirsty crowds. The lively scene of merchants hawking their wares, children playing, and people going about their daily business adds to the sense of energy and excitement in the air. This print is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Cheapside and the City of London during the 17th century, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The visit of Maria de' Medici and Henrietta Maria to England marked an important moment in Anglo-French relations, and this print captures the grandeur and pageantry of the occasion in stunning detail.
