The Queen at Sheffield, the Royal Carriage passing from the Station to the New Town Hall
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this engraving by Melton Prior, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion - The Queen's visit to Sheffield. As the royal carriage elegantly glides through the streets, drawn by magnificent horses, it is accompanied by a grand procession of Yorkshire Dragoons Yeomanry Cavalry and other regal figures. The atmosphere is electric as crowds gather along the route, eagerly awaiting a glimpse of their beloved monarch. Excitement fills the air as onlookers wave flags and cheer with joy. This ceremonial event marks an important milestone for Sheffield and its people. Amidst all this splendor, we see Her Majesty Queen Victoria herself seated inside the carriage alongside Princess Christian. They are joined by Major General Thynne and Lieutenant Colonel Sir Arthur Bigge of 2nd Life Guards. Their presence adds an air of dignity and prestige to this historic moment. The image captures not only the grandeur of royalty but also showcases various breeds of horses - racehorses, ponies, shire horses - symbolizing strength and grace. These animals play an integral role in transporting our esteemed guests through town. This enchanting print serves as a reminder of a significant chapter in history when Sheffield welcomed its queen with open arms. It immortalizes both her majesty's visit and the indomitable spirit of unity that prevailed among her subjects during those remarkable times.
