EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures Queen Victoria (1819-1901) during her visit to the picturesque village of Grasse in the French Riviera, Côte d'Azur, on April 11, 1892. The monarch, dressed in a elegant, feminine outfit, is seen surrounded by a group of women and men, all basking in the daylight and enjoying the scenic beauty of the village. The scene takes place outside, with the sunlight casting long shadows and adding a warm, inviting glow to the daytime setting. Queen Victoria, who reigned as Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837 to 1901 and was the first Empress of India from 1877 to 1901, is depicted here in her older years, yet her regal bearing and grace remain evident. The village of Grasse, known for its fragrant flowers and perfume production, served as a popular retreat for the monarch and her family, offering a respite from the formalities of royal life. This stunning photograph, produced as an illustrated supplement in Le Petit Journal, is a testament to the enduring allure of the French Riviera and the captivating presence of Queen Victoria. The vertical, upright composition, rich colors, and intricate details of the litography technique bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to a day when the queen and her entourage savored the simple pleasures of rural France.
