The Magnificent Silver-Gilt Wine Cooler - A Royal Celebration in 1844
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a momentous occasion at Windsor Castle in 1844. The scene unfolds in the Waterloo Gallery, where guests gather to celebrate the christening of Queen Victoria's son, Alfred, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Amidst the joyous festivities, our attention is drawn to the centerpiece of this grand event - the magnificent silver-gilt wine cooler. Its intricate design and gilded beauty reflect the opulence of the era. Crafted by an unknown creator, this masterpiece stands as a testament to English craftsmanship. As guests raise their glasses for a toast, they are served drinks from a ladle fashioned in the form of a nautilus shell. This unique detail adds an element of elegance and sophistication to an already splendid affair. Notably, this wine cooler is not just any piece; it holds historical significance as well. Known as "The Grand Punch Bowl" it is hailed as the largest wrought English plate ever created. Weighing a staggering 8,000 ounces and costing £8,500 at that time (a princely sum indeed), its design was masterfully executed by Thomas Stothard. In this snapshot frozen in time from "Illustrated London News" we catch a glimpse into an extraordinary moment when royalty mingled with nobility amidst lavish celebrations. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, such treasures continue to captivate our imagination with their timeless splendor.
