EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and excitement of the Royal Marriage Festivities in Christchurch, New Zealand, during the marriage of Prince Edward, later known as King Edward VII, to Princess Alexandra of Denmark in 1863. The image transports us back to the colonial era of the 1860s, an era of grand celebrations and cultural fusion. Prince Edward, the eldest son of Queen Victoria, and Princess Alexandra, the eldest daughter of Christian IX of Denmark, were married on March 10, 1863, at the Chapel Royal in St. James's Palace, London. Following their wedding, the newlyweds embarked on a world tour, including a visit to New Zealand, where they were warmly welcomed by the colonial population. The photograph shows the festivities in Christchurch, the largest city in the Canterbury region, which was then a thriving colonial settlement. Thousands of people gathered to welcome the royal couple, who were greeted with a grand procession, military parades, and a lavish banquet. The image captures the excitement and joy of the crowd, with people waving flags and cheering as the royal carriage passes by. The photograph is a testament to the strong connection between New Zealand and the British monarchy during the colonial era. It also reflects the vibrant and diverse cultural scene of the time, with people from various backgrounds coming together to celebrate the union of the Prince and Princess. The image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a unique insight into the history of New Zealand and its relationship with the British monarchy.
