EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures Queen Victoria as a young woman, on the brink of her historic reign that would last for over 63 years. Taken circa 1837, just before her accession to the throne on June 20, 1837, at the age of 23, Victoria's youthful beauty shines through in this portrait. Victoria's hairstyle, a high bun adorned with a white ribbon, was a popular choice among young women during the 1830s. The elaborate hairstyle, which required hours of preparation, was a symbol of femininity and elegance. Her collar, made of fine white lace, complements her youthful complexion and adds a touch of refinement to her appearance. Queen Victoria's reign marked a significant period in British history, with her influence extending far beyond her native land. Her commitment to duty, her devotion to her husband Prince Albert, and her passion for her children shaped the course of the Victorian era. This image, however, offers a rare glimpse into her past, before she became the matriarch of the British monarchy. The intricacies of Victoria's hairstyle, the delicate lace collar, and the regal bearing of the young queen all serve as a reminder of the opulence and grandeur of the Victorian era. This portrait, a testament to the beauty and grace of Queen Victoria as a young woman, continues to captivate audiences and inspire admiration more than 180 years after it was taken.
