EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in 1899, the Duke of York, later King George V, stands proudly at Pembroke Dock in South Wales, overseeing the launch of the royal yacht, Victoria and Albert. The Duke, dressed in a naval uniform, is surrounded by an entourage of dignitaries and naval officers, all clad in their finest uniforms, as they eagerly anticipate the moment when the vessel will be set free from its moorings. The Victoria and Albert was the third royal yacht to bear this esteemed name, and it was built at the Pembroke Dockyard in Wales. The launch of the yacht was a significant event, attracting a large crowd of onlookers from the local community and beyond. The 1890s were a time of great pride and prosperity for the British monarchy, and the launch of the Victoria and Albert was a testament to the country's maritime prowess and its rich naval history. The Duke of York, who would ascend to the throne in 1910, is seen here in his role as a naval officer and a future monarch, demonstrating his commitment to the traditions and values of the British monarchy. The photograph captures the grandeur and pageantry of the Victorian era, with the imposing figure of the Duke and his entourage set against the backdrop of the bustling dockyard and the open sea. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique insight into the history of the British monarchy and its connection to the sea. It is a reminder of a bygone era, when the launch of a royal yacht was a cause for celebration and a source of national pride. The Victoria and Albert went on to serve the royal family for many years, playing a vital role in their official engagements and state visits, before being decommissioned in 1936. This photograph remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the royal yachts and the rich maritime heritage of Wales and the UK.
