EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured aquatint engraving captures a significant moment in European history as it depicts the Carriage of the Sardinian Minister, Count de Pollon, in Queen Victoria's Coronation Parade on June 28, 1838. The image, published by Fores in London, offers a panoramic view of the grand procession, with the Sardinian carriage prominently displayed among the splendid assemblage of carriages, each adorned with the finest decorations and bearing the aristocracy of the time. The Count de Pollon, a Greek prince named Michael Soutzo, represented the Kingdom of Sardinia at the coronation of Queen Victoria. He is seen here in the carriage, dressed in full regalia, with an air of pride and dignity. The carriage itself is ornately decorated, with intricate designs and rich colors reflecting the opulence of the era. The Coronation Parade was a grand display of pomp and ceremony, marking the official beginning of Queen Victoria's reign. The event brought together the aristocracy and the people of London to celebrate the monarchy and the unity of the British Empire. The image captures the essence of the occasion, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of the past. The aquatint engraving, with its meticulous attention to detail, provides a correct representation of the state procession, making it an invaluable historical document. The image offers a fascinating insight into the aristocratic world of the 19th century, with its panoply of carriages, richly dressed riders, and the pomp and ceremony that surrounded the coronation of Queen Victoria.
