EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in aviation and royalty. It showcases the iconic Concorde, adorned with a pristine layer of snow, preparing to depart from Heathrow Airport. The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh can be seen aboard the aircraft, ready to embark on their tour of the Middle East in February 1979. The image exudes an air of elegance and prestige as it encapsulates both technological marvel and regal splendor. The Concorde, known for its supersonic speed and sleek design, stands out against the snowy backdrop, symbolizing human achievement reaching new heights. As the Queen's tour commences amidst this wintry scene, one cannot help but imagine the excitement that filled the air that day. This photograph serves as a testament to not only Britain's engineering prowess but also its diplomatic relations with nations across borders. Preserved through time by Victor Crawshaw's lens, this snapshot takes us back to an era when aviation was still awe-inspiring and travel held a touch of magic. It reminds us of how far we have come since then while evoking nostalgia for a time when such grandeur seemed within reach. This Memory Lane Print is more than just an image; it is a window into history – where technology meets royalty against nature's whimsical canvas – forever etched in our collective memory.
