EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a moment in time from the extraordinary life of Queen Victoria, as she is depicted reading letters on horseback while being attended to by her Highland servant, John Brown, at Osborne House in 1819. The photograph, taken in the early 20th century from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the intimate relationship between the monarch and her trusted servant. Victoria's reign, which began in 1837 at the tender age of 18, was marked by her deep devotion to her husband, Prince Albert, and her profound sense of duty to her people. However, her friendship with John Brown, which began when he was employed as a footman at Windsor Castle in 1852, became a subject of controversy and gossip. Brown, a Scottish Highlander, was known for his loyalty, courage, and strong presence, and he quickly became an integral part of the royal household. Despite the criticism and rumors that swirled around their relationship, Victoria continued to rely on Brown, who served as her personal servant, confidant, and companion until his death in 1883. This photograph, taken during an earlier period in their friendship, shows the queen engrossed in her letters while on horseback, with Brown holding the reins and looking intently at the road ahead. The image speaks to the deep bond between the two, as well as the unique demands of royal life that required multitasking and the ability to attend to business even while on the move. Osborne House, located on the Isle of Wight, was a beloved retreat for the queen and her family, and this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of the monarch and her trusted servant during a time of great change and upheaval in British history.
