EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pencil sketch captures the ethereal beauty and radiant grace of Queen Alexandra (1844-1925) on the day of her marriage to Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, in 1863. The romantic image, set against the backdrop of a serene and elegant European landscape, perfectly encapsulates the fairytale nature of the royal union. Born Princess Alexandra of Denmark, Alix, as she was affectionately known, was the youngest daughter of King Christian IX and Queen Louise of Denmark. Her marriage to the future King Edward VII of the United Kingdom marked the beginning of a love story that would endure for over five decades. The delicate lines and shading of the sketch reveal the intricacies of Alexandra's exquisite wedding gown, adorned with lace and pearls, as well as the delicate floral arrangements that surrounded her on this momentous occasion. Her expressive eyes and gentle smile convey the deep emotions of the young bride, while the tender gaze of her husband, Prince Albert Edward, speaks volumes of his love and devotion. As the daughter of a reigning monarch, Alexandra brought a sense of European sophistication and stability to the British monarchy, and her marriage to Albert Edward marked the beginning of a new era in British royal history. This beautiful and romantic portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the love and commitment that once united these two remarkable individuals, and the enduring power of the monarchy to inspire and captivate the world. The sketch, dated 1863, is a testament to the timeless beauty and elegance of royal weddings, and a reminder of the enduring allure of the romantic stories that have shaped the history of the monarchy. This image is a must-have for any collection of royal portraits, and a beautiful addition to any home or office, evoking the spirit of love, history, and tradition.
