Return from the Meet - A Glimpse into Childhood Royalty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this color lithograph titled "Return from the Meet" we are transported back to 19th century England, where a tired and dirty young girl in a princess costume holds onto her fox tail. This sentimental image, part of Henry Hetherington Emmerson's illustrations for "The May Blossom or The Princess and Her People" offers us a glimpse into the world of child royalty. The exhausted princess, identified as Princess Victoria, future Queen Victoria of Great Britain, represents both innocence and weariness after engaging in field sports like fox hunting. Her disheveled dress and worn-out hat speak volumes about her adventurous day out in the British countryside. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also reflects on the cultural significance of blood sports during that era. It serves as a reminder of how different childhood was for those born into royal families compared to ordinary children. Bridgeman Images' reproduction allows us to appreciate the intricate details within this artwork while pondering upon themes such as youth, fatigue, and societal expectations. As we gaze at this enchanting scene, we are reminded that even princesses experience exhaustion after an exhilarating day outdoors.
