EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures Prince Alfred of Edinburgh, also known as Prince Alfred, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, in a melancholic moment during his brief and tragic life. Born in 1874 as the second eldest son of Queen Victoria and Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Alfred was a grandson of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. The young prince's life was marked by personal struggles and heartache. In 1893, at the age of 19, he attempted to take his own life by shooting himself in the chest with a revolver. Despite the best efforts of the medical professionals, he succumbed to his injuries a few days later on September 16, leaving behind a grieving family and a nation in shock. This portrait, taken prior to the tragic event, showcases the young prince's regal bearing and striking features. Dressed in a formal attire, he gazes off into the distance, his expression reflecting a deep sense of introspection and sadness. The intricate details of his uniform, from the meticulously arranged buttons to the delicate folds of his cuffs, add to the sense of grandeur and nobility. The portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities and challenges that even the most privileged members of royal families face, and the human emotions that lie beneath the public facade of royalty. Prince Alfred's tragic story continues to captivate historians and enthusiasts of the Victorian era, making this portrait a valuable addition to any collection of royal portraits.
