EDITORS COMMENTS
The Visit of HRH the Prince of Wales to Luton (engraving) captures a momentous occasion in 19th-century England. This exquisite print, part of a private collection, showcases the grandeur and significance of royal visits during that era. In this image, we see HRH the Prince of Wales accompanied by his entourage as they make their way through Luton. The streets are adorned with magnificent decorations, including a majestic triumphal arch that symbolizes the ceremonial nature of this visit. The town's residents eagerly line the streets to catch a glimpse of royalty and join in the festivities. The engraving also provides us with a fascinating insight into one particular aspect of Luton's industry at that time – straw plaiting. Little plait weavers can be seen diligently working on their craft inside Plait Hall, while nearby stands an impressive straw plait factory known as Block House. These scenes highlight both the economic importance and cultural heritage associated with this traditional trade. As we admire this historical artwork, it is impossible not to feel immersed in the excitement and pride felt by all those present on that special day. The presence of HRH the Prince of Wales and his party adds an air of regality to every detail captured within this engraving. This remarkable print serves as a testament to our rich history and reminds us how royal visits were once cherished events celebrated by communities across Britain.
