EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the last known image of Queen Alexandra (1844-1925), the beloved consort of King Edward VII, at her beloved Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Taken in the year of her death, 1925, the image shows the Queen in a relaxed moment, holding her cherished Pekingese dog, a breed she was known to adore. Queen Alexandra, who hailed from Denmark, had been a constant presence at Sandringham since her marriage to Edward in 1863. The estate, which was the monarch's favored country retreat, held a special place in her heart. In this image, the Queen appears content and at peace, surrounded by the beauty of the Norfolk countryside and the companionship of her beloved pet. The photograph offers a glimpse into the personal side of this historic figure, providing a poignant reminder of her life and legacy. Queen Alexandra's passing marked the end of an era, and this image serves as a poignant reminder of her time at Sandringham and her enduring love for her home and her dogs.
