EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image depicts an elderly Queen Victoria (1819-1901) preparing for her departure from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle, circa 1895. The monarch, dressed in a dark gown and adorned with a diamond diadem, is seen mounting the steps of a magnificent horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by a retinue of courtiers and servants. The atmosphere is one of regal grandeur and solemnity, as the Queen embarks on her journey to her beloved Windsor residence. The horses, harnessed and ready, stand patiently, their breath visible in the crisp autumn air. The carriage, adorned with royal crests and ornate details, is a testament to the opulence and tradition of the British monarchy. The scene is bathed in soft, natural light, with the sun casting long shadows over the cobblestone streets of London. The Box 247 Boswell Collection, from which this image originates, is a valuable repository of historical photographs and lantern slides. This particular image offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of Queen Victoria, one of the most well-documented monarchs in history. The image's intricate details, from the Queen's regal attire to the textures of the horses' coats, transport us back in time to an era of elegance, tradition, and grandeur. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of Queen Victoria and the rich history of the British monarchy. The scene of the Queen's departure from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle, captured in this exquisite lantern slide, is a testament to the power and allure of historical photography.
