The Queen in her Bridal Dress, 1840
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait of Victoria, the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, on her wedding day. Created by William Henry Mote, this print showcases the monarch wearing a stunning lace-trimmed wedding dress and veil. The choice of handmade Honiton lace was not merely for aesthetic purposes but also to revive the declining English lace industry. During the Industrial Revolution, machine-made lace had caused widespread poverty and unemployment among skilled artisans. By selecting handmade Honiton lace for her bridal gown, Queen Victoria aimed to stimulate and support this struggling industry. Her decision showcased both her fashion-forward thinking as well as her commitment to uplifting her country's economy. The portrait captures Victoria's regal elegance as she stands adorned with ribbons and garlands of flowers. Her satin dress exudes grace while emphasizing the intricate craftsmanship of the Honiton lace. This image immortalizes a significant event in British history - Victoria's marriage to Prince Albert at St James's Palace in Westminster on February 10th, 1840. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to an era defined by tradition and opulence. It serves as a reminder not only of Victoria's role as a powerful monarch but also highlights her dedication towards supporting local industries during times of change.
