EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured aquatint engraving captures the Junior Exons of the Yeoman of the Guard on horseback during Queen Victoria's coronation parade in 1838. The Junior Exons, also known as the "Blueboys," were young officers in the Yeoman of the Guard, an elite corps of bodyguards responsible for protecting the monarch. In this impressive panorama, they can be seen riding proudly in formation, their blue uniforms contrasting against the red and gold livery of the other guards and the various carriages and coaches of the aristocracy. At the head of the procession, the Belgian Minister, Jean Sylvain Van de Weyer, rides on horseback, leading the way for the Queen. The pomp and ceremony of the occasion are on full display, with the panoply of colors, banners, and finery adding to the grandeur of the scene. The Coronation of Queen Victoria on June 28, 1838, was a significant event in British history, and this engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the grand procession that marked the occasion. Published by Fores, Sporting and Fine Print Repository in Piccadilly, London, this engraving is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the time. The intricate lines and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, transporting us back to the streets of London during this historic moment in British history.
