EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite hand-tinted photograph, HRH Queen Mary, the consort of King George V, is seen adorned in the regal splendor of the Order of the Garter robes and insignia. Taken during the early Edwardian era in Britain, this vintage image captures the essence of royalty, chivalry, and tradition that defined the monarchy during this period. Queen Mary, dressed in a elegant gown, proudly wears the iconic blue velvet mantle and scarf, adorned with the White Horses of the Windsor coat of arms. The Tudor rose and the garter, the symbol of the Order, are embroidered in gold thread, adding to the grandeur of the attire. The Queen completes her regal appearance with the star and badge of the Order, which are also embellished with precious stones. The lantern slide photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the British monarchy during the early 20th century. This image is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the Order of the Garter, an order of chivalry founded by Edward III in 1348, which continues to be one of the most prestigious orders of knighthood in the United Kingdom. This photograph is not only a valuable historical record but also a stunning work of art, showcasing the intricate details of the Queen's attire and the exquisite hand-tinting technique used to bring the image to life. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the British monarchy and the traditions that continue to shape it to this day.
