EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, hailing from the annals of history, depicts a momentous occasion in the regal chronicles of Great Britain: Queen Victoria's Jubilee of 1887. In the heart of the image, we find Queen Victoria herself, seated confidently upon her throne, her loyal lion at her side. The lion, a symbol of power and courage, underscores Victoria's unwavering strength and leadership. In stark contrast to the regal scene, a workman, embodying the spirit of the common man, is shown in the foreground. He takes a leisurely puff on his clay pipe, his weary expression hinting at a long day's labor. A side of beef, a symbol of nourishment and sustenance, rests beside him. This poignant juxtaposition highlights the interconnectedness of the monarchy and the working class, a testament to the social fabric of the time. In the upper echelons of society, the aristocracy revels in the festivities. Gentlemen, clad in finery and adorned with cigars, raise a toast to the Queen, their faces reflecting merriment and jubilation. The elegant unicorn, a mythical creature symbolizing purity and grace, stands proudly behind them, a reminder of the enchanting world of nobility and refinement. This photograph print, with its intricate layers of symbolism and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of events and scenes that marked Queen Victoria's Jubilee in 1887. It is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a time when the monarchy and its subjects were inextricably linked, bound by a shared sense of pride and tradition.
