EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the beloved collie dog, Oscar, who held a special place in the heart of Queen Victoria during the late 1890s. Known for her deep affection towards collies, Victoria's devotion to these elegant dogs was well-documented throughout her long and storied reign. In this image, Oscar, with his piercing brown eyes and fluffy white fur, gazes intently at the camera with an air of regal dignity that mirrored his royal owner. The Queen's connection with her canine companion was not just a matter of personal preference, but also a source of comfort and solace during her widowhood following the death of Prince Albert in 1861. Oscar was a gift to Victoria from the Duke and Duchess of Fife, and became a cherished companion to the Queen, accompanying her on numerous outings and even appearing in several portraits. The bond between Victoria and Oscar was a testament to the deep emotional connection that can exist between humans and their dogs, and serves as a reminder of the enduring love and companionship that dogs provide. This photograph, taken in the late 1890s, offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of one of history's most famous monarchs and her faithful companion, Oscar, the collie dog who shared her heart and her home.
