EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, taken in the picturesque city of Oxford in June 1863, we find Prince Edward, later King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, and his wife, Princess Alexandra of Denmark, being honoured with an Arch of Honour by the Apollo University Lodge of Freemasons. The royal couple's visit to Oxford was a significant occasion, marking their first official tour of England after their marriage in 1863. The University of Oxford, one of the oldest and most prestigious educational institutions in the world, held a special place in British history and tradition. The Freemasons, an ancient fraternal organization known for their secretive customs and symbolic rituals, were an integral part of Oxford's academic and social fabric. As the Prince and Princess made their way through the city, they were greeted with a warm welcome from the members of the Apollo University Lodge. The Freemasons, who valued the principles of brotherhood, charity, and morality, saw in the royal couple a reflection of their own ideals. To honour their guests, the Lodge members constructed an impressive Arch of Honour, adorned with Masonic symbols and banners. The Arch, which served as a symbol of respect and admiration, was a testament to the long-standing relationship between the University of Oxford and the Freemasons. The photograph captures the moment of the royal couple's passage under the Arch, surrounded by the proud and dignified members of the Lodge. The image, with its rich historical significance and visual appeal, remains a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era. The Arch of Honour, a unique and captivating custom, stands as a reminder of the enduring traditions and customs that continue to shape the history and culture of Oxford and the United Kingdom. This photograph, a beautiful and intriguing piece of history, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when royalty and Freemasonry intertwined in a celebration of brotherhood, tradition, and honour.
