EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical and thought-provoking cartoon print of Queen Victoria as Hermione from Shakespeare's "A Winter's Tale" captures the essence of a monarch who has retreated from public life following the death of her beloved Prince Albert. Dated 23 September, 1865, this illustration by John Tenniel for Punch magazine reflects the sentiment that Victoria has lingered too long in seclusion, with her people yearning to see their queen once more.
In this clever portrayal, Queen Victoria is depicted as Hermione, a character known for her grace and resilience in the face of adversity. The juxtaposition of Victoria's regal stature with the fictional role highlights both her strength and vulnerability during this period of mourning.
The artist skillfully weaves together elements of British history and literature to create a poignant commentary on Victoria's prolonged absence from public view. As Britannia looks on with concern, Paulina urges Queen Hermione to emerge from her winter's tale and return to her duties as ruler.
This image serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Queen Victoria and the challenges she faced during one of Britain's most tumultuous periods. It invites viewers to reflect on themes of duty, grief, and resilience in the context of royal leadership.
