EDITORS COMMENTS
The Opening of the Glasgow Industrial Exhibition captures a momentous occasion in Scottish history. This lithographic print, created by Samuel Begg, transports us back to May 11,1901. The image depicts the grand arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Fife at St Enochs Station in Glasgow. As they step off the royal train, all eyes are on Her Highness, who is graciously presented with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. The air is filled with excitement and anticipation as this ceremonial gesture symbolizes not only the opening of the exhibition but also celebrates royalty in all its glory. The scene showcases a perfect blend of regality and industrial progress. The bustling railway station serves as a backdrop for this historic event, emphasizing Scotland's growing prominence in industry and innovation during that era. Begg's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the elaborate flower arrangements to the dignified expressions on everyone's faces. It is evident that this moment holds great significance for both Glasgow and Scotland as a whole. This print allows us to relive an important chapter in history while marveling at its artistic beauty. It reminds us of how art can encapsulate not just visual aesthetics but also cultural heritage and societal milestones.
