EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite cover of the programme for the grand opening of Kingsway, an engraving created by an English School in the 19th century. Housed in a private collection and preserved with care, this historical piece offers a glimpse into a momentous occasion that took place on Wednesday, 18 October 1905. The cover itself is adorned with striking portraits of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, adding regal splendor to this printed ephemera. As one's eyes wander over the intricate details, it becomes evident that this programme was designed to commemorate a significant event in England's history. Kingsway, named after its royal patrons, served as more than just a road; it symbolized progress and modernity during a time when Britain was rapidly evolving. The presence of these esteemed monarchs on the cover further emphasizes their role in shaping not only their nation but also Europe at large. With references to both the 19th and early 20th centuries, this artwork encapsulates an era marked by transformation and innovation. It serves as a testament to England's rich heritage while simultaneously hinting at its future aspirations. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time – reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by these influential figures who once graced our world with their presence.
