Celebrating a Monarch's Milestone: A Victorian Balloon Ascent on Queen Victoria's Birthday This photograph, taken in the 1830s, depicts an extraordinary event in the annals of British royal history: Queen Victoria's birthday celebration marked by a daring hot air balloon ascent. The image, held in the esteemed collection of The Royal Aeronautical Society at the National Aerospace Library and available through Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to an era of grandeur, innovation, and excitement. The scene is set in a lush, verdant garden, where the regal splendor of the occasion is evident in the striped pavilion and the Surrey carriage, adorned with the royal coat of arms, waiting nearby. The queen, not present in the photograph, would have watched the spectacle from the comfort of this carriage, surrounded by her courtiers and dignitaries. The Montgolfier-inspired hot air balloon, with its distinctive striped design and the Union Jack flag proudly displayed, is the focal point of the image. The gondola, suspended beneath the balloon, carries a small group of passengers, their faces filled with anticipation and wonder as they prepare for their ascent. A team of ground crew, dressed in Victorian attire, attend to the final preparations, while a fire burns beneath the balloon, providing the heat necessary for lift-off. The photograph offers a glimpse into the early days of ballooning as a form of transportation and recreation, a time when the skies were still a frontier waiting to be explored. As the passengers rise into the air, they embark on a journey that would have been both thrilling and terrifying, an adventure that embodied the spirit of discovery and innovation that defined the Victorian era.
