EDITORS COMMENTS
The late Prince Alfred of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha (b/w photo) captures a poignant moment in history, frozen in time by an English Photographer from the 19th century. This print, part of a private collection, showcases the solemn face of Prince Alfred, heir presumptive and hereditary prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. Born on October 15th, 1874, Prince Alfred held great promise within the royal family. The photograph was taken during his christening at Buckingham Palace on November 30th that same year. Surrounded by esteemed figures such as the Archbishop of Canterbury and Dr Tait, this image reflects both the weight of royalty and the hopes placed upon young shoulders. Tragically, Prince Alfred's life was cut short when he passed away on February 6th, 1899. His untimely death left a void within not only his immediate family but also among those who had admired him as a potential future leader. The monochrome tones add depth to this historical artifact while conveying a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. Through this photograph captured by mzphoto and made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are granted a glimpse into the world inhabited by royalty – its joys and sorrows alike. Let us remember Prince Alfred as he stands forever frozen in time: regal yet vulnerable; full of potential yet tragically unfulfilled.
