EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide depicts HRH The Duchess of York, also known as Princess May of Teck, making her way through the grand procession in London to celebrate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897. The Duchess, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, sits regally in a horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by ornate decorations and heraldic symbols. The scene unfolds as the carriage passes under the magnificent archway of Whitehall, with the iconic Houses of Parliament and Big Ben visible in the background. The Diamond Jubilee marked the 60th anniversary of Queen Victoria's reign, making it an extraordinary milestone in British history. The late 19th century was a time of great tradition and pageantry, and this photograph captures the essence of the celebrations that took place in London. The procession featured an array of magnificent carriages, horse-drawn vehicles, and uniformed soldiers, all adding to the grandeur of the occasion. The intricate details of the Duchess's attire and the carriage, as well as the architectural features of the buildings in the background, make this lantern slide a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image offers a unique perspective on the historical significance of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee and the grandeur of the late 19th-century British monarchy.
