EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent statue of Boudicca, also known as Boadicea, Queen of the Iceni tribe. Crafted by the talented sculptor Thomas Thornycroft, this iconic masterpiece was positioned at the end of Victoria Embankment in 1902. Boudicca's powerful presence is beautifully captured as she fearlessly drives her chariot, symbolizing her indomitable spirit and leadership. The historical significance of this statue lies in Boudicca's courageous rebellion against Roman rule in 61 AD. Her unwavering determination to protect her people and their freedom resonates through time, making her an enduring symbol of strength and resilience. In the background stands the majestic clock tower of the Houses of Parliament, home to Big Ben – a colossal 13-ton bell housed within Sir Edmund Beckett's remarkable clock design. Named after Sir Benjamin Hall, who oversaw their installation in 1859 as Commissioner of Works, Big Ben has become an internationally recognized landmark synonymous with London. Taken on November 16th, 1938 during nighttime hours, this dramatic photograph captures both history and beauty intertwined. The juxtaposition between Boudicca's statue and Big Ben creates a striking visual contrast that evokes a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints staff for future generations to appreciate and admire, this image transports us back to a defining era where ancient heroism meets modern marvels.
