EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous aquatint print of Queen Victoria captures her in a lighthearted moment, showcasing her playful side. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is part of Alfred Crowquill's Comic History of the Kings and Queens of England. The illustration depicts Queen Victoria during a concert, surrounded by jesters and entertainers who are amusing her with their jokes and funny antics. Queen Victoria's caricatured image adds to the satirical nature of this piece, as she is portrayed with exaggerated features that highlight her royal status. Prince Albert, her husband, also makes an appearance in the print. The verse accompanying the artwork adds another layer of humor to the scene. This comic portrayal not only showcases Queen Victoria's sense of humor but also provides insight into British society during that era. It reflects how satire was used as a form of entertainment and commentary on royalty and European culture at large. The aquatint print offers a glimpse into Victorian-era amusement while providing historical context about Germany and its influence on Europe during that time. With its blend of wit, artistry, and social commentary, this artwork serves as both an amusing visual representation and a testament to the enduring legacy of Queen Victoria's reign.
