EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of the Queen of the Carnival, as she gracefully rides atop a grand, horse-drawn float, dressed in the regal attire of the ancient Egyptian queen, Cleopatra. The Queen's elaborate headdress, adorned with golden feathers and intricate jewels, sits atop her head, framing her regal features. Three elegant female attendants, dressed in flowing robes and holding fans, accompany her, adding to the exotic allure of the scene. The road leading to a residential area serves as the backdrop for this historical procession, with the Queen's float drawn by a proud and powerful carthorse, adorned with decorative wheels and harness. The man steering the horse wears a flat cap and holds a cigarette, adding a touch of modernity to the otherwise historical scene. People of all ages gather on the sidewalks and porches of the surrounding houses, their faces filled with awe and wonder, as they watch the Queen and her entourage pass by. A curious dog peeks out from behind a fence, its ears perked up in interest, while a child in the foreground gazes up at the Queen in admiration. The atmosphere is one of excitement and celebration, as the Queen of the Carnival continues her journey through the streets, leaving a trail of history and tradition in her wake. This photograph, taken by renowned photographer John Greig, is a stunning reminder of the rich cultural heritage and vibrant history that lies at the heart of the Carnival experience.
