EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in history - the opening of The New Guildhall in Plymouth by none other than the Prince of Wales. The image, created by Frank Watkins, showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of this remarkable building. The scene is set on a bustling street, with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians going about their daily lives. The Prince of Wales himself can be seen atop his majestic steed, commanding attention as he arrives to inaugurate this magnificent structure. The Guildhall stands tall and proud, its intricate details showcased in every stroke of Watkins' skilled hand. Its imposing presence dominates the landscape, symbolizing power and authority. This architectural masterpiece becomes even more impressive when considering its location in Devon's vibrant city of Plymouth. Horses play a prominent role in this scene, not only carrying the prince but also adding an element of liveliness to the composition. They represent both transportation and a connection to nature - farm animals that remind us of our ties to wildlife and livestock. As we gaze upon this historic print from 1874, we are transported back in time to witness an event that shaped Plymouth's identity forever. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and how architecture can leave an indelible mark on society for generations to come.
