EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment from the royal yachts Norwegian trip of 1904, as documented by Queen Alexandra herself. The image showcases a distinguished pilot standing on the deck of the ship, dressed in an immaculate navy uniform complete with a headgear cap. His confident smile reflects his expertise in navigating these majestic vessels. Queen Alexandra's attention to detail is evident in this portrait, as she skillfully captures not only the pilot but also the grandeur of the ship and its surroundings. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the photograph, transporting us back to early 20th century Britain. The significance of this image extends beyond its artistic merit. It serves as a testament to England's naval prowess during times of war and peace alike. As Queen Alexandra's Christmas Gift Book was published by The Daily Telegraph, it undoubtedly reached countless readers who were captivated by her photographic talents. In addition to being an accomplished photographer, Queen Alexandra was renowned for her role as Princess of Wales and later as queen consort alongside King Edward VII. Her name became synonymous with elegance and grace throughout Europe. This remarkable print offers us a glimpse into history - an era when ships ruled transportation across vast waters - while simultaneously showcasing Queen Alexandra's multifaceted talents behind both lens and pen.
