EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning views of Sandringham, Norfolk in 1887. The image captures various landmarks including Sandringham church, Old Oak, Sandringham Park, Lych Gate, Sir Dighton Probyns house, and the Bachelors cottages. Queen Victoria acquired the Sandringham estate in 1862 as a residence for her eldest son, the Prince of Wales (later known as King Edward VII), and his new bride Princess Alexandra. The photograph depicts a serene countryside scene with a man on horseback riding through an entrance gate towards the majestic oak tree. The rider adds a sense of scale to this picturesque landscape while emphasizing the grandeur of nature surrounding him. Sandringham's rich religious heritage is evident through its beautiful churchyard and lychgate featured prominently in this print. These elements highlight the strong Christian presence within this East Anglian location during that era. The print also serves as a historical testament to British royalty with King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra being mentioned as creators alongside an unknown artist. This further emphasizes their connection to Sandringham House and their role in shaping its history. Overall, this remarkable image provides us with a glimpse into both natural beauty and architectural splendor while reminding us of the significant royal legacy associated with Sandringham Estate.
