EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this iconic print by Victor Crawshaw, we witness a historic moment as Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip embark on their Middle East Tour. It is the 12th of February 1979, and at Heathrow Airport, anticipation fills the air as the royal couple prepares to board the legendary Concorde aircraft bound for Bahrain. The image showcases not only the elegance and poise of our beloved monarch but also highlights the Duke of Edinburgh's unwavering support by her side. As they step onto the supersonic airliner, one can sense their determination to strengthen diplomatic ties with nations afar. This snapshot encapsulates an era when aviation was rapidly evolving, symbolizing progress and innovation. The Concorde itself stands tall in all its glory—a testament to human ingenuity that pushed boundaries in flight technology during the late 20th century. Amidst a backdrop of grey skies hinting at inclement weather conditions, it is evident that nothing could deter these two figures from fulfilling their duty. Their departure marks not just another journey but a significant chapter in British history. Victor Crawshaw's masterful composition immortalizes this extraordinary moment forever etched in time. This print serves as a reminder of our enduring admiration for Her Majesty Elizabeth II and Prince Philip—two remarkable individuals who have dedicated their lives to serving both country and crown.
