1. Title: "A Regal Moment in History: The Unveiling of Queen Victoria's Statue Outside Buckingham Palace on May 17, 1911" 2. Description: This evocative image captures the historic moment when Queen Victoria's statue was unveiled outside Buckingham Palace on May 17, 1911. The Queen, dressed in her regal attire, stands proudly beside her late husband, King Edward VII, as they both gaze upon the newly unveiled statue with admiration. The grandeur of the occasion is evident in the large crowd gathered to witness the event, including dignitaries, military personnel, and commoners alike. The statue, a masterpiece by Thomas Brock, was commissioned to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, marking her 60 years on the British throne. The intricate details of the statue, from the Queen's regal attire to the ornate decorations on the pedestal, are beautifully rendered in this photograph. The sense of history and tradition is palpable, making this an essential addition to any collection of British royal history. 3.

Her Diamond Jubilee in 1911 was a time for celebration and reflection, and the unveiling of her statue outside Buckingham Palace was a fitting tribute to her long and distinguished reign. The statue, which stands to this day, is a testament to her enduring legacy and the respect and admiration she continues to inspire. This photograph, taken on the day of the unveiling, is a valuable document of this important moment in British history.
