EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1870, showcases a heartwarming moment in the history of the British monarchy, featuring Prince and Princess of Wales, King Edward VII (1841-1910) and Queen Alexandra (1844-1925), with their children in traditional Highland attire. At this time, Edward and Alexandra were the heirs apparent to the throne, and their eldest son, Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence (1847-1892), is depicted to the far right. The image captures a tender scene as Queen Alexandra lovingly holds her youngest daughter, Princess Victoria (b. 1868), in her arms, while Princess Louise (b. 1869) stands proudly at her shoulder. The Duke of York, later King George V (1865-1936), stands next to his father, Edward, displaying the strong familial bond that existed within the royal family. Edward and Alexandra's eldest child, Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence, is also present in the photograph, adding to the family portrait. The royal family's Highland attire is a testament to their appreciation for Scottish culture and tradition. This photograph, an important piece of history, offers a glimpse into the personal lives of the future King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, showcasing their love and devotion to their family during a significant period in British history. The image, which is believed to have been taken around 1870, is a treasured reminder of the close-knit bond between the royal family members and their shared heritage.
