EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Queen Mary of Teck, the beloved wife of King George V, is seen with her cherished pet, Vassilka, a Russian borzoi, at the kennels in Sandringham, Norfolk, around 1930. The regal queen, dressed in an elegant coat and hat, sits comfortably on a wooden bench, her expression warm and affectionate as she gazes at her beloved companion. Vassilka, known for her famous sleek, long coat and graceful demeanor, stands obediently by her side, her keeper holding the leash. The image of Queen Mary and Vassilka at the Sandringham kennels is a testament to the deep bond between the monarch and her pet. Borzois were a favorite breed among the Russian aristocracy, and Queen Mary had acquired Vassilka as a gift from the Russian Grand Duchess Elizabeth Fyodorovna. The queen was known to be an avid dog lover and had a large collection of pets throughout her life. The setting of the photograph at Sandringham, the royal family's country retreat, adds to the idyllic scene. The kennels at Sandringham were an essential part of the estate, and the royal family spent much time there, enjoying the beautiful grounds and tending to their pets. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the personal life of Queen Mary and her beloved pet, Vassilka. It is a poignant reminder of the enduring connection between people and their pets, and the joy that they bring to our lives. The image is a treasured piece of royal history and a beautiful representation of the love and companionship shared between a queen and her faithful companion.
