EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print captures the grandeur of Westminster Bridge Monument to Boadicea, showcasing the remarkable sculpture by Thomas Thornycroft. Completed in 1905, this masterpiece stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of Queen Boudica and her Iceni warriors. In this photograph, we are transported back to Edwardian London, where a bustling vendor sets up his stall near the monument. With spears in hand and horses at their side, these male traders proudly display an array of souvenirs for passersby. The atmosphere is alive with energy as people gather around, eager to catch a glimpse of this iconic statue. A closer look reveals a female figure standing atop a chariot, embodying strength and determination. Her gaze fixed through a telescope suggests vigilance and readiness for battle. This powerful representation pays homage to Queen Boudica's fierce leadership during her rebellion against Roman rule. The photographer skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment with stunning detail in every frame. Through his lens, we witness not only the beauty of Thornycroft's sculpture but also the vibrant street life surrounding it. As we admire this sepia-toned gem from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us be reminded of our rich heritage and those who fought valiantly for freedom centuries ago. This photograph serves as both an artistic treasure and a poignant reminder that history lives on through artistry captured on film.
