EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maud Charlotte Mary Victoria, also known as Maud of Wales, in 1893. The artist behind this stunning portrait is W Downey, who beautifully captures the elegance and regal poise of Queen Maud. Maud of Wales holds a prominent place in history as she became the Queen of Norway through her marriage to King Haakon VII. Born in 1869, she was the youngest daughter of British king Edward VII and Alexandra of Denmark. What makes her reign even more significant is that she was the first queen of Norway since 1380 who did not hold simultaneous titles as queen of Denmark or Sweden. In this monochrome photograph, we see Queen Maud seated gracefully with one hand resting on her lap while holding a delicate fan in the other. Her attire exudes Victorian charm and sophistication, adorned with exquisite jewelry that adds to her royal allure. The print itself belongs to Felix Potin's collection from around 1893 and offers us a glimpse into an era when cigarette cards were popular collectibles featuring notable figures like sovereigns and princesses. This image encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance, making it a treasured piece for any admirer of royalty or photography enthusiasts alike.
