EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Eton School, one of England's most prestigious public schools. Taken in 1863 by an unknown creator, it showcases top-hatted pupils and their teachers eagerly preparing for the arrival of Princess Alexandra of Denmark. The school buildings are adorned with garlands and flowers, symbolizing the joyous anticipation surrounding this royal visit. Princess Alexandra, who would later become Queen Alexandra upon her marriage to Prince Edward (the future King Edward VII), was welcomed with great enthusiasm by the boys and staff at Eton College on 9 March 1863. This image offers a glimpse into the vibrant celebrations that took place during this memorable occasion. The architectural beauty of Eton School is evident in this photograph, with its prominent Boys Arch serving as an impressive backdrop. The archway stands tall and proud, adorned with banners fluttering in the wind. It represents not only a physical structure but also serves as a symbolic gateway to knowledge and opportunity for these young scholars. Captured during the Victorian era, this image reflects both the fashion trends of that time - showcased through the boys' attire including top hats - as well as nature's presence through blooming flowers surrounding them. Preserved by The Print Collector, this historical snapshot allows us to witness firsthand how education intertwines with royalty and tradition at Eton School over a century ago.
