EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught (1850-1942), the third son and seventh child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, at the tender age of eleven. The image, taken by the renowned Victorian photographer, John Jabez Mayall, showcases the young prince in full Highland dress, adding an air of regal charm and historical significance to the portrait. During the 1860s, when this photograph was taken, the British monarchy was at the height of its power and influence, with Queen Victoria reigning over her vast empire. Prince Arthur, as a member of the royal family, was expected to uphold the traditions and customs of the realm, including the wearing of Highland dress. The intricate details of the prince's attire are on full display in this stunning portrait. He wears a kilt made of tartan fabric, a sporran adorned with tassels and a silver buckle, and a sgian-dubh, or Scottish dagger, tucked into his sock. The young prince's expression is serious and confident, reflecting the responsibility and duty that came with his royal lineage. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and traditions of the British monarchy during the Victorian era. It offers a glimpse into the life of a young prince, who would go on to serve his country as a military officer and a diplomat, and who played an important role in the political and social landscape of the 19th and early 20th centuries. The image, captured by the skilled hand of John Jabez Mayall, is a valuable historical artifact that continues to fascinate and captivate viewers today.
