EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history - the participation of The Royal Guernsey Militia in the Jubilee celebrations of 1897. Standing proudly as representatives from the Channel Islands, these troops were not only unique in their presence but also held a distinct honor - they were compulsorily enlisted. Under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Groves, who led the Royal Guernsey Artillery, this detachment showcased their strength and unity. Comprising various divisions including artillery and light infantry units, they stood united to commemorate this grand occasion. The image itself is an exquisite example of nineteenth-century engraving artistry. Its retro style transports us back to that era when such illustrative techniques flourished. The attention to detail and precision evident in every line and curve truly brings this historic scene to life. As we gaze upon this vintage print from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of how far we have come since those jubilant days. It serves as a testament to our shared heritage and reminds us of the bravery and dedication exhibited by those who came before us. Let this remarkable photograph be a window into history – one that allows us to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind its creation and the significance it holds within our collective memory.
