The Duke of Edinburgh in the Crimea - A Glimpse into Royal Exploration
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, dating back to the 19th century, offers a rare glimpse into the adventurous spirit of The Duke of Edinburgh during his visit to the Crimea. Captured by an unknown English artist and now part of a private collection, this print showcases Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, as he explores the enchanting Old Palace in Crimea. The image transports us back to October 1873 when The Graphic magazine published this illustration. It depicts Prince Alfred amidst stunning Crimean topography, standing proudly outside the residence known as the Palace of Alourka. This architectural marvel served as a retreat for emperors and khans alike in Baktchisarai—a picturesque town nestled within Ukraine's Crimean Tartary region. As we gaze at this historical artwork, we are reminded of Prince Alfred's fascination with foreign lands and his desire to experience different cultures firsthand. His visit to Crimea not only highlights his love for exploration but also sheds light on Britain's growing interest in establishing diplomatic ties with regions along the Black Sea. With its intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship, this engraving from Bridgeman Images allows us to step into history and witness a momentous occasion—an encounter between royalty and exotic landscapes that forever shaped our understanding of global relations.
