Royal christenings have long been a grand affair, steeped in tradition and regal splendor. The Chapel Royal at St James's Palace has witnessed countless memorable moments, as the future leaders of nations are welcomed into the Christian faith. One such moment was when HRH the Prince of Wales stood proudly as godfather to the son and heir of the Duke of Marlborough. The lithograph captures this significant event, showcasing the scene in all its majesty. The Chapel Royal at St James's also played host to another historic christening - that of the infant daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Fife. This engraving immortalizes their joyous occasion on 29 June, surrounded by family and well-wishers. Windsor Castle became a witness to royal baptisms too, with an enchanting lithograph depicting the Bishop of Winchester receiving an infant prince from none other than Queen Victoria herself during York's christening ceremony. Across Europe, royal families celebrated these sacred events with equal pomp and circumstance. An engraving showcases Princess Victoria Louisa's baptism in Potsdam, Germany - a testament to her German heritage and imperial lineage. Buckingham Palace itself has seen numerous royal christenings over time. From captivating engravings capturing these special moments to chromolithographs displaying scenes filled with elegance and grace – each one tells its own story within those hallowed walls. Italy joined in on this age-old tradition as well; a lithograph commemorates Princess Yolanda's baptism at Quirinal Palace on 15 June - an event that brought joy not just to her parents but also to their nation. Beyond Berlin’s borders lies yet another engraving capturing Prince Frederick William Victor Albert’s baptism. Held within Berlin’s walls on a day marked by significance for both his family and his countrymen alike – it was truly an unforgettable occasion. Even Paris couldn't resist joining in on celebrating these momentous events.
