EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history - "The Opening of Parliament, Movers and Seconders of the Address in Reply to the Speech from the Throne". Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases a private collection that holds immense historical value. Intriguingly, this image depicts politicians gathered at both the House of Lords and House of Commons during this grand occasion. Among them are notable figures such as Colonel Lockwood, Lord Hardwicke, Earl of Albemarle, and Viscount Milton. Their presence signifies their role as seconders who support and endorse the address given in response to the speech from the throne. The solemnity is palpable as these distinguished individuals stand before a regal throne while fulfilling their parliamentary duties. The composition exudes power and authority with its focus on these movers and seconders who play pivotal roles within British politics. This photograph not only serves as a visual documentation but also offers insight into political traditions that have shaped governance for centuries. It was originally published in The Illustrated London News on February 5th, 1898. Preserved by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this piece allows us to delve into history's corridors where decisions were made that impacted nations.
