EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures Countess Waldegrave, Victoria Braham (1823-1894), in the prime of her life during the late Victorian era. Daughter of renowned tenor John Braham, Victoria's first marriage was to the Hon. Charles Morgan in 1842, but it ended in divorce. In 1840, she married her second husband, the 7th Earl Waldegrave, with whom she had five children. The Earl, known for his love of hunting, is depicted in this photograph with his loyal dog, adding an air of aristocratic elegance and tradition. The Waldegrave family, one of the oldest and most distinguished in British history, can trace their lineage back to the Norman Conquest. The Earls of Waldegrave have held various titles and positions of power throughout the centuries, including Lord Chamberlain, Master of the Horse, and Lord Lieutenant of various counties. Countess Waldegrave's elegant attire and refined demeanor reflect the opulence and sophistication of the Victorian era. The photograph, taken in 1879, captures a moment in time when the aristocracy continued to hold significant influence and power in British society. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and traditions of the British aristocracy, providing a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and influential figures of the past. The image of Countess Waldegrave and her husband, with their faithful dog, serves as a reminder of the enduring power and allure of the British aristocracy, even as the world around them continued to change.
