EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured aquatint engraving captures the grandeur and pomp of Queen Victoria's coronation parade in 1838, as depicted in Fores' "Correct Representation of the State Procession." At the center of the image stands the Queens Bargemaster of the Royal Household, dressed in full regalia, skillfully guiding the royal barge through the Thames. Surrounding him are 48 Watermen, each in their distinctive liveries, ready to assist in the transportation of the monarch and her court. In the foreground, an Equerry rides on horseback, his red and gold uniform gleaming in the sun. Behind him, the band of the Household Brigade plays lively tunes, their instruments at the ready. The regiment's officers and trumpeters are also in attendance, their uniforms a panoply of colors and intricate details. The scene is filled with a sense of ceremony and tradition, as the pageantry of the coronation procession unfolds before the crowds lining the banks of the Thames. The sound of the horns and timpani echoes through the air, adding to the festive atmosphere. This engraving, published by Fores, Sporting and Fine Print Repository in Piccadilly, London, offers a unique glimpse into the grandeur and spectacle of Queen Victoria's coronation, a momentous occasion that marked the beginning of her reign as monarch of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
