The Queen's Visit to the Continent - A Glimpse into 19th Century European Royalty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Queen's Visit to the Continent" takes us back in time to witness a momentous occasion in European history. The engraving, created by renowned artist Durand Godefroy (1832-1896), captures the essence of an eventful day during Queen Victoria's visit to the Principality of Monaco. In this bustling street scene, we see various professions and activities that were integral to the region's economy at that time. Fruit vendors are seen gathering and packing lemons, showcasing Provence and Riviera's rich agricultural heritage. The lemon storehouse stands as a symbol of prosperity and trade within this picturesque town. Amidst all this activity, one cannot miss spotting Her Majesty herself - Queen Victoria - gracefully observing her surroundings from her carriage. Accompanied by her entourage, she is warmly welcomed by local dignitaries as they pay homage to their esteemed guest. Maison Bottini in Menton serves as a backdrop for this historic encounter between royalty and commoners. This enchanting French town on the Mediterranean coast provides a perfect setting for such grandeur. Durand Godefroy masterfully brings together artistry and historical accuracy through his detailed depiction of 19th-century Europe. His work not only immortalizes significant events but also offers us glimpses into everyday life during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art
