EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Crowning of Queen Victoria on June 28,1838. The right half of this 19th-century artwork showcases a significant event in British history that took place at Westminster Abbey in London, England. The creator of this remarkable piece remains unknown. The image portrays Queen Victoria, also known as Alexandrina Victoria, seated upon the illustrious St Edward's Chair during her coronation ceremony. This engraving and etching beautifully depict the grandeur and solemnity of the occasion. Surrounding her are members of the congregation who witnessed this royal event with awe and reverence. As Empress of India and monarch over Great Britain and Ireland, Queen Victoria's reign marked an era characterized by immense cultural growth and political stability. Her portrait exudes regality, capturing her strong presence as she assumes her role as sovereign. The landscape within Westminster Abbey serves as a majestic backdrop to this momentous occasion. The Coronation Chair itself holds great historical significance as it has been used for centuries to crown English monarchs. Preserved within the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this print is a testament to both artistic mastery and our fascination with royalty throughout history. It allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when religion played an integral role in public life, while reminding us of Queen Victoria's enduring legacy as one of Britain's most influential rulers.
