EDITORS COMMENTS
Princess Alexandra as Queen of England: Her Majesty passing through the Royal Gallery at the opening of King Edward VII's First Parliament, February 14,1901. In this photo print, we witness a momentous occasion in British history. Following the death of Queen Victoria on January 22,1901, King Edward VII ascended to the throne and his beloved wife Alexandra became Queen consort. The image captures the regal couple making their way through the Houses of Parliament in Westminster. As they traverse the grand Royal Gallery, adorned with ornate decorations and historical portraits, one cannot help but be struck by their majesty and grace. Surrounded by members of parliament and distinguished peers from all walks of life, Princess Alexandra exudes elegance in her exquisite attire. The pageantry is palpable as she takes her place alongside her husband who now holds immense political power. This photograph not only immortalizes a significant event but also serves as a testament to Princess Alexandra's role as a symbol of strength and dignity during this transitional period for Britain. It encapsulates an era when monarchy intertwined with politics and highlights how individuals like Princess Alexandra played crucial roles in shaping history. Preserved within these monochrome frames lies a glimpse into a bygone era filled with tradition, power dynamics, and societal expectations. It stands as a reminder that even amidst political change and shifting landscapes, royalty continues to hold sway over hearts and minds.
