EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured aquatint engraving captures the grandeur and pomp of the Coronation Parade for Queen Victoria, held on June 28, 1838. The image focuses on the carriage of the Spanish Minister, Chevalier de Aguilar, who represented the Sardinian Count Pollon at the coronation. The carriage, adorned with intricate gold and red decorations, is pulled by a team of pristine white horses, their manes and tails flowing in the wind. The Chevalier himself is depicted standing in the open doorway of the carriage, dressed in the formal attire of the Spanish aristocracy. The panoramic view of the parade showcases an array of ornate carriages and processions, each representing the various European monarchs and dignitaries in attendance. The scene is filled with the vibrant colours and rich textures of the era, adding to the grandeur and splendour of the occasion. Published by Fores, this 'Correct Representation of the State Procession' offers a unique glimpse into the grand ceremony that marked the beginning of Queen Victoria's reign. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving highlights the artistic skill and craftsmanship of the time, making it a valuable historical document and an exquisite work of art.
