The Christening of the Princess Royal, 1841
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a significant moment in British royal history. In this photo print, taken from an engraving by Robert Wilson for "The Life and Times of Queen Victoria" we witness the baptism of Victoria, Princess Royal, daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. The scene unfolds in the grand Throne Room at Buckingham Palace, where a Christian ceremony is being conducted. The room is filled with members of the royal family and esteemed guests who have gathered to witness this joyous event. A bishop stands at the altar, holding a candle as he performs the sacred ritual. Queen Victoria herself can be seen dressed elegantly in her regal attire, standing proudly beside her daughter's cradle. Surrounding them are other women from the royal household, all adorned in their finest dresses. This image not only showcases a religious ceremony but also provides insight into Victorian-era motherhood and family life within royalty. It highlights both tradition and faith as integral parts of British society during that time. Through this print, we are transported back to 19th-century Britain—a world steeped in reverence for religion and monarchy—where even such intimate moments were captured for posterity.
