EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "DORE: LONDON: 1873. Marlborough House: Expecting the Prince" takes us back in time to Victorian London, immersing us in a bustling street scene filled with anticipation and excitement. The image showcases the grandeur of Marlborough House, an iconic English landmark, as it prepares to welcome a distinguished guest - the Prince himself. The wood engraving after Gustave Dore's original artwork beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing snapshot from London: A Pilgrimage, we are transported to a late afternoon in 1873. The streets are teeming with people eagerly awaiting the arrival of royalty. Crowds have gathered near the gate, their faces alive with expectation and curiosity. A group of guards stands watchfully by, ensuring order amidst the growing crowd. Spectators line both sides of the street, craning their necks for a glimpse of the approaching procession. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only a significant event but also gain insight into Victorian society - its fascination with royalty and its love for pomp and ceremony. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it serves as a window into history itself. It allows us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone while reminding us that even centuries later, our fascination with tradition and pageantry remains unchanged.
