EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century, witnessing a significant moment in British history. The image showcases Prince Albert, Chancellor of Cambridge University from 1847 until his untimely death in 1861, presenting an address to his beloved wife, Queen Victoria. This ceremonial occasion is beautifully captured by artist William Heysham Overend. The scene unfolds with great elegance and grandeur. Dressed in magnificent ceremonial robes and adorned with regal accessories such as hats and bonnets, the royal couple exudes authority and grace. As Prince Albert reads from a document held firmly in his hand, Queen Victoria listens attentively on her majestic throne. Surrounded by distinguished men and women who have gathered for this historic event at Cambridge University's prestigious location, the atmosphere is filled with reverence and admiration. The engraving skillfully captures every intricate detail of their attire while emphasizing their status as monarchs of Great Britain and Ireland. This remarkable print serves as a testament to the power couple's commitment to education and their dedication to serving their country. It immortalizes not only their love but also their shared vision for progress through knowledge. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece created by William Heysham Overend under Robert Wilson's guidance for "The life and times of Queen Victoria" we cannot help but be captivated by its timeless beauty—a snapshot frozen forever that reminds us of an era long gone yet still cherished today.
