"The Arrival of Her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria at the House of Lords to Open Her First Parliament" is a significant historical print by George Baxter, an English artist and printer known for developing a method of printing in oil colors, which is a precursor to color printing. Created in 1837, the print commemorates a pivotal moment in British history, capturing the young Queen Victoria's ceremonial entrance into the House of Lords for the State Opening of Parliament, an event that marked the beginning of her reign after her ascension to the throne in the same year.

The print is notable for its intricate detail and vibrant colors, which were a hallmark of Baxter's patented process, known as Baxter Process. This process involved an initial metal keyplate to outline the image and subsequent wood or metal blocks to apply each color. Baxter's technique allowed for the mass production of high-quality, affordable prints, which contributed to the democratization of art in the Victorian era.

Queen Victoria's reign, which lasted from 1837 to 1901, was marked by significant industrial, cultural, political, and military changes in the United Kingdom, and her first opening of Parliament was a symbolic commencement of what would later be known as the Victorian era. The print not only serves as a historical record but also reflects the period's artistic and technological advancements.

George Baxter's print is an important artifact that provides insight into the pageantry of British monarchy, the art of printing in the 19th century, and the societal values of the time. It remains a subject of interest for historians, art collectors, and enthusiasts of the Victorian period.
