EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Alfieri, we witness a moment of grandeur and historical significance. The image showcases Queen Alexandra gracefully departing Southwark Cathedral after unveiling the magnificent statue of her late husband, King Edward. It is July 5th, 1915, a time when Europe was engulfed in the turmoil of World War I. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timeless elegance to the scene as Queen Alexandra stands tall amidst a crowd of admirers. Her regal attire exudes sophistication and poise, reflecting her status as royalty. Surrounding her are men dressed in formal suits, paying their respects to both the queen and the memory of King Edward. A sleek automobile awaits Queen Alexandra's departure, symbolizing progress and modernity during this era. This snapshot from history encapsulates not only a significant event but also offers us glimpses into early 20th-century European fashion trends. Alfieri's expert composition captures every detail with precision while maintaining an artistic flair that draws viewers into this historic moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this photograph print from TopFoto's collection, we can't help but feel transported back to those transformative years known as "the nineteen tens". It serves as a reminder of our rich past and invites contemplation on how far society has come since then.
