EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant atmosphere of a fair held at Hyde Park during Queen Victoria's coronation in 1838. The image, taken by an anonymous photographer, showcases the bustling energy of the event as people from all walks of life gather to celebrate this momentous occasion. In the heart of London, England, Hyde Park becomes a playground for merriment and amusement. The city of Westminster serves as a backdrop to this grand spectacle, with its iconic landmarks adding to the charm of the scene. This woodcut photograph transports us back to the 19th century when Britain was under the reign of Empress Alexandrina Victoria. The fair is filled with joyous crowds indulging in various forms of entertainment. From thrilling rides that tower over park-goers to lively games and stalls offering tasty treats, there is something for everyone at this celebration. People can be seen laughing and enjoying themselves amidst a sea of monochrome attire. Queen Victoria herself is not visible in this particular snapshot; however, her presence looms large over every aspect of this royal event. As she ascended to become Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, she also earned her title as Empress of India—a testament to her vast empire. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery's collection, this historic photograph offers us a glimpse into Victorian society's penchant for revelry and communal celebrations during significant milestones in their beloved queen's reign.
