EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph, titled "Cheering the King on Coronation Day, the Chelsea Pensioners on Constitution Hill" we are transported back to a momentous occasion in London's history. The image captures a scene filled with excitement and patriotism as the Chelsea Pensioners gather to cheer on their beloved monarch. The composition beautifully portrays a row of distinguished pensioners, adorned in their iconic red uniforms, lining Constitution Hill. Their faces reflect both reverence and joy as they eagerly await the arrival of their king. The attention to detail is remarkable; every button, medal, and crease in their uniforms is meticulously rendered. This historic event takes place during the coronation day celebrations of an unnamed king. Lance Calkin skillfully captures the atmosphere of unity and loyalty that permeates through the crowd. We can almost hear the cheers echoing through time as these loyal subjects express their unwavering support for royalty. The engraving was originally published in The Graphic on August 16th, 1902 – a testament to its enduring significance even over a century later. It serves as a poignant reminder of Britain's rich royal heritage and its people's deep-rooted respect for tradition. As we gaze upon this lithograph from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we cannot help but be moved by the timeless devotion depicted within it. It stands as an everlasting tribute to those who have served their country selflessly and reminds us all of our duty to honor our past while looking towards a bright future under
