EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-coloured aquatint engraving captures the grandeur and pomp of Queen Victoria's coronation parade in 1838, featuring a squadron of Life Guards mounted on horseback. The Household Cavalry, an elite brigade of the British Army, are depicted in their distinctive uniforms, complete with bearskins, breastplates, and swords. The Life Guards, a part of the Queen's Bodyguard of the Household, were responsible for escorting the monarch during state occasions and parades. The panoramic view of the procession showcases the military precision and pageantry of the event. The fanfare of horns and the rhythmic beats of timpani add to the sense of excitement and celebration in the air. The engraving, published by Fores, Sporting and Fine Print Repository in Piccadilly, London, is a correct representation of the state procession on the occasion of Queen Victoria's coronation on June 28th, 1838. The panoply of military uniforms, the vibrant colours, and the intricate details make this engraving a true testament to the grandeur and majesty of the coronation ceremony.
