The Queen's Visit to the Savoy
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that captures a momentous occasion in British history. In this beautifully detailed print, we witness Queen Victoria's visit to the iconic Savoy building on 24th March, where she laid the foundation stone for its new medical examination hall. The image showcases the grandeur and ceremonial nature of the event, with members of royalty and distinguished guests gathered around Her Royal Highness. The architecture of the Savoy Place stands tall and majestic in the background, symbolizing progress and innovation in medicine. This historic visit not only highlights Queen Victoria's commitment to healthcare but also emphasizes her interest in advancements in medical science. Asclepius, depicted as Asklepios - the Greek god of healing - can be seen overlooking this gathering, representing physical health and well-being. The presence of medical professionals further underscores the importance placed on healthcare services during this era. The image serves as a testament to how far medicine has come since then while reminding us of our ongoing pursuit for better healthcare solutions. Frank Watkins' masterful engraving skillfully captures both the regal atmosphere surrounding Queen Victoria's visit and pays homage to London's rich architectural heritage. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece; it is a historical document that immortalizes an important milestone in British royal history.
