The National Armada Tercentenary Commemoration Memorial at Plymouth: A Historic Moment in Time - The Unveiling Ceremony This photograph, taken from "The Graphic. An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper," Volume 42, July to December, 1890, captures a significant moment in British history as the National Armada Tercentenary Commemoration Memorial at Plymouth is unveiled. The image shows a large crowd gathered on Plymouth Hoe, a popular promenade overlooking the sea in Devon, England. The occasion marks the 300th anniversary of the Spanish Armada's failed invasion attempt on England in 1588. At the center of the image, the Duke of Edinburgh, later King George V, is seen leaving the Guildhall to attend the unveiling ceremony. The Duke is dressed in a military uniform, accompanied by soldiers and other dignitaries. In the background, people from all walks of life have gathered to witness the historic event. The memorial itself is not visible in this photograph but is reported to have been a grand structure commemorating the bravery and resilience of the British people during the Spanish Armada threat. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the late 19th century and the Victorian era. The image is a testament to the power of the press, with "The Graphic" documenting this important event for posterity. The National Armada Tercentenary Commemoration Memorial at Plymouth remains an essential part of British history and a symbol of the country's rich maritime heritage.
