EDITORS COMMENTS
Royal Majesty and Admiralty: King George V, Queen Mary, and the Crew of HMY Victoria and Albert, 1925". In this print from 1925, we are transported back to a moment in history when royalty mingled with their loyal crew aboard the magnificent HMY Victoria and Albert. The group portrait showcases King George V (1865-1936) and Queen Mary (1867-1953), exuding regal elegance as they stand amidst their devoted sailors. The royal yacht itself, launched in 1899, was a symbol of opulence and served as a vessel for the royal family's journeys to Osborne House on the Isle of Wight. It was during one such voyage that this enchanting image was captured. Accompanying the king and queen are esteemed guests - Marquise d'Hautpoul de Seyre along with her brother Sir Harry Stonor - who were close friends and courtiers to the monarchs. Their presence adds an air of sophistication to an already distinguished gathering. Every detail in this monochrome masterpiece speaks volumes about British heritage; from naval officers donning their uniforms to the meticulous craftsmanship of Kirk & Sons shipbuilders from Cowes. The composition beautifully captures both male and female members of the crew standing proudly alongside their sovereigns. This photograph is not just a snapshot frozen in time but also serves as a testament to unity between monarchy and those who faithfully serve them at sea. It encapsulates an era where tradition met modernity on board HMY Victoria & Albert – forever etching its place in history.
