The Prince and Princess of Wales at the Oxford Commemoration - Reception under the Arch of Steel by the Apollo University Lodge of Freemasons, June 16,1863
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1901, we witness a momentous occasion in British history. The future King Edward VII, then known as Prince Albert Edward, and his beloved wife Queen Alexandra grace us with their presence during the Oxford Commemoration ceremony in 1863. As they process under crossed swords held high above them, one cannot help but be struck by their regal elegance and poise. Dressed in magnificent cloaks that cascade around them like a sea of opulence, they exude an air of grandeur befitting royalty. The significance of this event is further emphasized by the backdrop of Apollo University Lodge's arch made entirely out of steel—an impressive feat for its time. This commemorative gathering symbolizes not only the couple's commitment to education but also their connection to freemasonry and its principles. Surrounded by distinguished men clad in formal attire representing various facets of society, including freemasons and members of academia, it becomes evident that this was more than just a ceremonial affair—it was a celebration steeped in tradition and honor. Preserved through time within the pages of "The Illustrated London News Record" this image serves as a testament to both Queen Victoria's glorious reign and her son's imminent ascension to power. It captures a fleeting moment frozen forever—a glimpse into an era where monarchy intertwined with education and fraternity for all to admire.
