EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the late 19th century, showcasing the majestic new Examination Hall of the Royal College of Surgeons and the Royal College of Physicians. Located on London's Victoria Embankment, this architectural marvel was inaugurated with great pomp and ceremony on March 24,1886, as witnessed by Her Majesty Queen Victoria herself. The image transports us to a time when horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight in bustling city streets. In the foreground, we see an elegant carriage pulled by two magnificent horses making its way towards this grand building. The juxtaposition of urban sophistication and rural charm is striking as these powerful animals navigate through a landscape that once thrived with wildlife and farm animals. The intricate details captured in this print allow us to appreciate not only the stunning architecture but also the craftsmanship involved in creating such an impressive structure. The foundation stone laid by Queen Victoria symbolizes her support for advancements in medical education and research. As we gaze upon this historical scene frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how far medicine has come since those days. This engraving from Bridgeman Images offers us a glimpse into both our past and our future – reminding us of the importance of preserving history while continuously striving for progress in science and healthcare.
