The Prince and Princess of Wales in Shooting Dress, 1900 - A Glimpse into Royal Sporting Traditions
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous occasion at Balmoral Castle in 1900. The future King Edward VII, accompanied by his wife, the Princess of Wales, is seen donning their shooting dress alongside guests. This image provides a fascinating insight into the royal family's recreational activities during the late 19th century. Dressed impeccably for the occasion, King Edward VII stands tall with his distinguished beard while sporting a traditional Scottish kilt and shooting jacket. The Princess of Wales exudes elegance in her Indian-inspired attire complete with a deerstalker hat. Surrounding them are men and women dressed similarly in shooting attire as they prepare for an exciting day on the hunting grounds. Balmoral Castle serves as an impressive backdrop to this scene, its grandeur emphasizing the regal nature of this gathering. As smoke from their cigarettes fills the air, it adds an atmospheric touch to this historic moment frozen in time. The artist behind this remarkable illustration is Robert Wilson, who skillfully captured not only the physical appearance but also conveyed a sense of camaraderie among these individuals engaged in sport together. This print transports us back to an era when hunting was not just reserved for commoners but also enjoyed by royalty. It reminds us that even amidst their royal duties and responsibilities, members of the British monarchy found solace and pleasure in outdoor pursuits like shooting parties.
