EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment of Queen Victoria's departure from Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire on 14th May 1890. The monarch, dressed in black mourning attire following the death of her husband, Prince Albert, is seen waving from the balcony of the grand manor house, surrounded by her entourage. The scene is one of grandeur and pageantry, with the ornate gates of Waddesdon Manor adorned with decorative wreaths and banners. The streets leading up to the manor are lined with well-wishers, who have come out to catch a glimpse of the beloved monarch as she embarks on her journey. The transport of the era, a horse-drawn carriage, is seen at the ready, its gleaming horses poised to carry the Queen away. The entire scene is one of historical significance, as Queen Victoria's visit to Waddesdon Manor marked one of her last public appearances before her retirement from public life. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of elegance and royal tradition.
