The Reception of Lord Milner, illustration from The King, June 1st 1901 (litho) captures a significant moment in history as it depicts the arrival of Alfred Milner, 1st Viscount Milner, and Robert Cecil, 3rd Marquess of Salisbury at a train station. This remarkable print showcases the grandeur and formality surrounding their visit after the Second Boer War. In this image, we witness a scene filled with elegance and sophistication. Distinguished gentlemen donning top hats and carrying walking sticks gather on the platform to welcome these esteemed statesmen. Their presence commands attention as they step off the train amidst an atmosphere of anticipation. The fashion of the Edwardian era is beautifully portrayed through their attire – tailored suits paired with stylish hats exude an air of authority. The engraving skillfully captures every detail, from their confident strides to the firm handshake exchanged between Lord Milner and his political counterparts.
