EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the Victorian era, witnessing a tender moment between royalty. The image showcases Arthur, the Duke of Connaught, who was born on May 1st, 1850, as the third son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. On his first birthday, he is seen receiving a precious gift from his godfather - none other than the esteemed Duke of Wellington. The sepia-toned gravure beautifully captures the innocence and charm of young Arthur as he sits in his noble attire. His parents' pride shines through their expressions in this mid-19th century portrait by Franz Xaver Winterhalter. This photograph serves as a testament to the close-knit relationships within royal circles during that time period. It highlights not only Arthur's privileged upbringing but also emphasizes the significance of godparentage within aristocratic families. As we gaze upon this historical treasure, we cannot help but be enchanted by its timeless beauty and rich symbolism. It reminds us of an era when tradition and lineage were held in high regard, while offering a glimpse into the personal lives of one of history's most influential families – VICTORIA & ALBERT.
