EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Robes of the Royal Victorian Order, dating back to 1953. Housed within the prestigious Royal Collection at the Tower of London, these robes hold a significant place in British history and tradition. The image captures every intricate detail of this ceremonial costume, highlighting its vibrant blue color and regal red accents. The photograph provides a close-up view, allowing viewers to appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship that went into creating these robes. The richly adorned cape features tassels that add an extra touch of elegance to this majestic garment. It is reminiscent of 19th-century fashion trends while still embodying a sense of modernity from the mid-20th century. Worn by members of the Royal Victorian Order, which was established by Queen Victoria herself, these robes symbolize honor and knighthood within British society. They serve as a testament to Queen Victoria's reign as Empress of India and her role as Queen of Great Britain and Ireland during her time on the throne. Martin Holmes FSA expertly captured this piece for his book "The Crown Jewels" published in 1953 by Her Majesty's Stationery Office (HMSO). Through his lens, he immortalized not only an object but also a part of British heritage that continues to inspire awe today.
