EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this beautifully preserved black and white lithograph, we are transported back to the grandeur of the 19th century. The image showcases the enchanting wedding ceremony of Prince Edward and Princess Alexandra, held at St Georges Chapel within the magnificent Windsor Castle in 1863. The scene is filled with an air of regality as guests gather on either side, bearing witness to this momentous occasion. The chapel's ornate architecture serves as a breathtaking backdrop for the sacred union taking place before our eyes. Bridesmaids adorned in exquisite ceremonial costumes stand gracefully in the foreground, their presence adding a touch of youthful charm to this historic event. Princess Alexandra, known for her grace and elegance, radiates beauty as she stands beside her beloved groom, Prince Edward. Their love story unfolds amidst a sea of well-wishers who have come from far and wide to celebrate their union. This lithograph captures not only a significant moment in British history but also reflects the deep-rooted traditions and religious customs that were integral to royal weddings during that era. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of love and commitment shared by two individuals destined for greatness. Preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this remarkable print allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when kings and queens reigned supreme. Let it serve as an everlasting reminder of one couple's journey towards becoming King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra – symbols of unity, strength, and devotion.
