Principal Tent, Royal Botanic Societys Fete, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Principal Tent, Royal Botanic Societys Fete, 1844. The spring exhibition of this society was held on Tuesday at the inner circle of the Regents Park [in London]; and, taking into consideration the early period of the year, the show was certainly the finest of the kind we have ever witnessed. An intimation of the rarity and forwardness of the specimens for exhibition succeeded in attracting the attention of Royalty. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by the Marchioness of Douro, Colonel Buckley, and Colonel Bouverie, had, before the public were admitted, a private view of the plants and flowers. The weather was beautifully fine, and the grounds were crowded by a numerous and fashionable company. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in London's history - the Principal Tent at the Royal Botanic Society's Fete in 1844. The spring exhibition held within the inner circle of Regents Park was an extraordinary spectacle, surpassing all previous shows of its kind. The anticipation surrounding this event reached such heights that even Royalty could not resist attending. Before opening to the public, Her Majesty Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were granted a private viewing of the exquisite plants and flowers on display. Accompanied by esteemed individuals such as the Marchioness of Douro, Colonel Buckley, and Colonel Bouverie, they marveled at nature's wonders showcased within this floral festival. The weather on that day was nothing short of perfect - bathed in sunshine, it illuminated both the grounds and numerous visitors who flocked to witness this grand affair. A fashionable crowd gathered amidst these picturesque surroundings to appreciate horticulture at its finest. This engraving from "Illustrated London News" provides us with a glimpse into Victorian-era Britain when gardening enthusiasts reveled in botanical marvels. Although we may never know who captured this remarkable scene through their lens, we are fortunate enough to have this historical artifact preserved for generations to come. As we gaze upon this image today, let us be transported back in time to experience the beauty and splendor that once graced Regents Park during one unforgettable year - 1844.
