EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1901, we are transported back to a grand event held in the heart of London. Queen Victoria, known for her love of history and pageantry, hosted a magnificent fancy dress party at Buckingham Palace. The occasion was none other than the illustrious Plantagenet Costume Ball. The image captures Her Majesty herself dressed as Queen Philippa of Hainault, exuding regal elegance in her exquisite medieval attire. Standing beside her is Prince Albert, embodying King Edward III with his commanding presence and royal garb. Together they epitomize the splendor and grace of an era long past. Surrounded by guests adorned in costumes inspired by the Plantagenet period (1154-1485), the ballroom comes alive with vibrant colors and intricate designs. The circular room echoes with laughter and music as couples dance gracefully amidst flickering candlelight. This photograph not only offers us a glimpse into an enchanting evening but also serves as a testament to Queen Victoria's reign that spanned over six decades. It showcases her passion for preserving history while celebrating British heritage. Preserved within these black-and-white frames are memories that transcend time—a moment frozen forever from an era where kings and queens ruled supreme. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene captured by an unknown photographer, we can't help but marvel at the grandeur of it all—the blending of centuries brought together under one roof—truly a sight fit for royalty.
