Edward VII's Historic Visit to Portugal in 1903: A Grand Arrival in Lisbon This striking photograph captures a pivotal moment in the historic visit of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom to Portugal in April 1903. The monarch, accompanied by his wife Queen Alexandra and a large royal entourage, arrived in Lisbon aboard the Victoria & Albert III steam yacht, which was launched in 1901. The royal party is seen disembarking from the yacht, greeted by a grand reception on the Portuguese shore. The Victoria & Albert III, a magnificent steam ship with its distinctive red, white, and blue funnel, is anchored in the background. The oarsmen in traditional Portuguese attire are seen rowing the barge that transported the royals to the shore. King Edward VII's visit to Portugal was an important state occasion, marking the strengthening of diplomatic relations between the two countries. The visit included a series of ceremonies, banquets, and official engagements, reflecting the close ties between the British and Portuguese monarchies. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the grandeur and pomp of a royal visit in the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the historical significance of the occasion and the enduring relationship between the United Kingdom and Portugal.
