EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and tradition of the Knights of the Order of the Garter as they gathered at Windsor Castle on the auspicious occasion of the wedding of Prince Edward of Wales and Princess Alexandra of Denmark on the 10th of March, 1863. The Order of the Garter, one of the oldest and most prestigious chivalric orders in the world, was founded by King Edward III in 1348. The knights, dressed in their magnificent robes adorned with the iconic garter emblem, proudly display their heraldry as they assemble in the castle's hallowed halls. The air of anticipation and excitement is palpable as the knights prepare to attend the royal wedding, an event that would strengthen the ties between the British and Danish monarchies. This historical image is a testament to the enduring traditions of knighthood, heraldry, and chivalry, and offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the past.
