EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken on board the royal yacht Britannia in 1908, offers a glimpse into the world of British naval officers during the early 20th century. The artist behind this remarkable image is none other than Queen Alexandra herself, showcasing her talent not only as a queen but also as an accomplished photographer. In this group portrait, we see a collection of distinguished men dressed in their navy uniforms, standing confidently on the ship's deck. Their direct gazes exude strength and determination, reflecting their commitment to serving their country at sea. The full-length composition allows us to appreciate the details of their attire and admire their regal bearing. The publication that features this print is Queen Alexandra's Christmas Gift Book: Photographs from My Camera. Published by The Daily Telegraph in London, it provides a unique insight into Queen Alexandra's personal perspective through her own photographic lens. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, we are reminded of the importance of maritime transportation during times of war and peace. This photograph encapsulates both the grandeur of naval warfare and the everyday lives of those who served aboard ships like Britannia. Queen Alexandra's artistic prowess shines through in this monochrome masterpiece, offering us a rare glimpse into her multifaceted talents beyond her role as royalty. It serves as a testament to her creativity and passion for capturing moments that would otherwise have been lost to history.
