"Capturing Royal Moments: The Adventures of Victoria and Albert III" Step aboard the royal yacht Victoria and Albert III as we embark on a journey through time. In 1904, Queen Alexandra's artistic eye immortalized the crew of this majestic vessel during their visit to Norway. Little did they know that these snapshots would become treasured memories. The year 1908 marked a significant moment in history with the L'Entente Cordiale, where the Anglo-French alliance was celebrated on board the Victoria and Albert III. As dignitaries reviewed this momentous occasion, unity and friendship were forged amidst opulent surroundings. Throughout its illustrious existence, the royal yacht continued to grace waters worldwide. In 1937, it sailed proudly under clear skies, showcasing its regal splendor for all to admire. Queen Alexandra's artistry captured not only grand scenes but also intimate moments shared by sailors off Norway's coast in 1904. These glimpses into their lives remind us that even amidst duty and protocol, camaraderie thrived among those who served onboard. Amongst distinguished guests aboard the they were Princess Victoria herself in 1908. She delighted in spending time with her mother's beloved dogs while Prince Edward VIII conversed with Sir Charles Cust – little knowing what his future held. Christiania (now Oslo) became a backdrop for unforgettable memories during a Norwegian trip later that same year. Queen Alexandra skillfully depicted life onboard as officers engaged in conversation while Prince Olav V of Norway made lasting connections with Lady Antrim and Miss Knollys. Count Benckendorff and Lord Errington graced these decks too; their presence adding an air of elegance befitting such esteemed company. Their interactions surely sparked lively conversations filled with wit and wisdom. Princess Victoria found joy alongside young Prince Olav during their encounter in 1908 – two souls destined for greatness crossing paths on this floating palace.
