EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the state visit of Queen Victoria to the Glasgow International Exhibition on 22 August 1888. The colour lithograph, created by John Lavery and held in a private collection, beautifully depicts the grandeur and pageantry surrounding this royal event. In the image, we see Sir Archibald Campbell reading an address to Her Majesty as she sits upon her throne. This historical scene was later featured as an illustration in Cassells History of the British People around 1920. The exhibition itself was a celebration of industry, innovation, and culture, showcasing Britain's achievements during the Victorian era. The photograph transports us back to a time when Scotland played host to one of Europe's most prestigious events. It symbolizes not only Queen Victoria's influence but also highlights Glasgow's importance as a center for art and commerce during this period. As we gaze at this remarkable image, we are reminded of the power and majesty associated with royalty. It serves as a testament to British history and its rich cultural heritage. Through exhibitions like these, nations come together to share their accomplishments while fostering international relations. This print is truly a treasure that allows us to glimpse into an extraordinary moment in time - capturing both the essence of Queen Victoria's reign and the splendor of the Glasgow International Exhibition.
