EDITORS COMMENTS
10 February 1840: The Marriage of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert The marriage of Queen Victoria to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, which took place on the 10th of February 1840, was a significant event in British royal history. The young and vibrant Queen, who had ascended to the throne just five years prior, was about to embark on a lifelong partnership with her beloved husband. The wedding ceremony was held in the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace in London. Victoria, dressed in a magnificent white satin gown with a long train, looked radiant as she exchanged vows with her groom, Prince Albert, who wore the uniform of a colonel in the British Army. Surrounded by their families and esteemed guests, the couple pledged their love and commitment to each other, marking the beginning of a profound and influential union. Prince Albert, a German prince, brought a new energy and modern influence to the British monarchy. He was an intellectual, a patron of the arts, and a dedicated family man. Together, Victoria and Albert would rule as a team, shaping the country's social, political, and cultural landscape for decades to come. Their marriage would also produce nine children, ensuring the continuation of the royal line. This photograph captures a moment of joy, love, and history, as Queen Victoria and Prince Albert begin their journey as husband and wife. The image serves as a testament to the enduring power of love and the profound impact of a royal marriage on the course of history.
