Statue of the late Prince Consort, at Balmoral, by W. Theed, 1864. Creator: Unknown
Statue of the late Prince Consort, at Balmoral, by W. Theed, 1864. 'As a memorial of...[Prince Albert's] attachment to the Scottish Highlands, and his predilection for the sports of deerstalking and grouse-shooting...which cannot but be gratifying to the Scottish portion of her Majesty's subjects, we have engraved a representation of Mr. Theed's marble statue of that lamented Prince, lately placed in the corridor of Balmoral Castle. He appears here in the Highland costume, equipped for the chase, and accompanied by his favourite deer-hound. The fidelity of the likeness, as well as the spirit and grace of the attitude, set off by a manly and romantic fashion of dress, will sufficiently recommend this statue'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Prince Albert, the late Prince Consort, in all his regal glory. The statue, created by W. Theed in 1864, stands as a memorial to his love for the Scottish Highlands and passion for deerstalking and grouse-shooting.
Dressed in traditional Highland attire and accompanied by his faithful deer-hound, Prince Albert's likeness is captured with remarkable fidelity and grace. His manly yet romantic fashion sense is on full display, showcasing his connection to the land and its sporting pursuits.
The engraving of this marble statue at Balmoral Castle was met with great admiration from the Scottish people, who found it gratifying to see their beloved prince depicted in such a noble manner. The attention to detail in both the sculpture itself and this photographic reproduction truly brings out the spirit of Prince Albert's character.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when royalty embraced tradition and nature with equal fervor. It serves as a timeless reminder of a man who left an indelible mark on history through his dedication to duty and love for Scotland's rugged beauty.
