The Kindly Nature of Queen Victoria
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a heartwarming moment in history, showcasing the compassionate side of one of Britain's most beloved monarchs. This enchanting engraving, created by Amedee Forestier and published in The Illustrated London News in 1901, transports us back to a time when royalty held great influence over society. In this scene, we witness Queen Victoria's visit to the zoological gardens on Villefranche Road. Surrounded by her loyal subjects, including French schoolchildren and a dying soldier from Netley Hospital, Her Majesty exudes warmth and empathy. With lion cubs playfully at her feet, she extends kindness not only to those within her royal circle but also to a beggar and tramp seeking solace. The image beautifully depicts the queen's commitment to serving her people with grace and compassion. Whether it be through charitable acts or connecting with individuals from all walks of life, Queen Victoria exemplifies true nobility. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even those born into privilege can possess an innate sense of humanity. It is through small gestures like these that royals can leave an indelible mark on their nation's collective memory. Bridgeman Images' reproduction allows us to appreciate the intricate details captured by Forestier while preserving this historical testament to Queen Victoria's kindly nature for generations to come.
