About the Item

Horse Guards Parade is located next to St James' Park and Whitehall in central London; jousting and other tournaments have regularly been held on the site since the time of Henry VIII (1491-1547); the area is now used for this annual parade and other ceremonies. Large size. Horizontal. Good condition, restored tears, restored paper losses, minor staining, backed on linen, small hole on image straight through the linen.
