EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Queen Alexandra and her grandson, Crown Prince Olav of Norway, are seen leaving the newly opened Whiteleys Store in Bayswater, West London, after an afternoon of Christmas shopping. The image, captured in 1911, depicts the royal pair bundled up against the inclement weather, with Queen Alexandra holding an umbrella to shield herself and her grandson from the rain. Queen Alexandra, a Danish princess who had married King Edward VII in 1863, was a beloved and respected figure in British society. Widowed since 1901, she was known for her charitable works and her commitment to the welfare of her subjects. Her grandson, Crown Prince Olav, was the eldest child of her eldest son, the late King Haakon VII of Norway. The Whiteleys Store, a grand department store that had recently opened its doors to the public, provided the perfect backdrop for this royal shopping excursion. The store's elegant facade, adorned with holiday decorations, can be seen in the background, while the bustling crowds of shoppers can be glimpsed through the store's large windows. Despite the rainy weather, the queen and her grandson were in high spirits as they left the store, no doubt having found some wonderful Christmas presents for their loved ones. The image captures a moment of familial warmth and connection amidst the festive chaos of the holiday season. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history of royalty and shopping in London, as well as the enduring bond between Queen Alexandra and her Norwegian grandson. The image also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of department stores as destinations for holiday shopping and family outings.
