EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Historic England's Photo Library, we are transported back to the Victorian era and introduced to a loyal companion of Queen Victoria herself - Noble, her beloved collie dog. The image captures the essence of nobility and loyalty as Noble stands tall on a grand staircase at Osborne House in Isle of Wight. Noble exudes an air of regality, his noble stature mirroring that of his esteemed owner. With ears perked up and eyes alert, he epitomizes the role bestowed upon him - "Always on guard". This faithful canine was undoubtedly an integral part of Queen Victoria's life, providing unwavering companionship during her reign. The photograph not only showcases the bond between Queen Victoria and Noble but also offers us a glimpse into the opulent surroundings they inhabited. The majestic stairwell serves as a backdrop for this royal duo, with its intricate architectural details adding to the overall grandeur captured within this moment frozen in time. As we admire this historic snapshot, it is impossible not to be captivated by both the elegance emanating from Noble himself and the rich historical significance encapsulated within each frame. Through this single image, Historic England allows us to connect with our past while celebrating one small yet significant aspect of Victorian society - their love for animals and their recognition of their importance as trusted companions.
