EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to a significant moment in history. The year is 1875, and Prince Albert Edward, the future King Edward VII, takes center stage as he assumes his role as the Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England. Seated confidently on a regal throne to the right side of the frame, Prince Albert Edward exudes authority and grace. His distinguished presence commands attention from all those present in this grand masonic lodge. Surrounding him are men dressed in traditional Masonic attire; their aprons symbolizing their commitment to brotherhood and secrecy. The atmosphere within this historic building is palpable with anticipation. A captivated audience fills every corner of the room, representing various walks of life united by their shared dedication to Freemasonry. This photograph captures not only a pivotal moment for Prince Albert Edward but also offers us a glimpse into Victorian society's fascination with secret societies and rituals.
