EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this engraving by Lucien Davis, we witness a momentous occasion as Queen Victoria pays a visit to Netley Hospital on the 9th of May, 1863. The image captures the essence of compassion and empathy that defined her reign. Netley Hospital, located in Hampshire, was renowned for its exceptional care of wounded soldiers during the Crimean War. As Her Royal Highness steps foot into the hospital grounds, she is accompanied by an air of regality and grace. Surrounded by her entourage and attended by His Royal Highness Prince Albert, their presence brings solace and hope to those recovering within these walls. The scene depicts Queen Victoria engaging with patients who eagerly await her arrival. Their expressions are filled with gratitude and admiration for their beloved monarch.

Through this artwork, we glimpse into a time when royalty extended beyond mere figureheads; they were compassionate leaders who genuinely cared for their subjects' well-being. Davis' masterful engraving beautifully encapsulates both the solemnity and humanity present during this significant event at Netley Hospital.
