The King and Queen in the Highlands
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that captures a moment of royal charm and connection with the people. The image showcases Prince Edward of Cornwall, later known as Edward VIII, responding to the warm greetings of the locals at Ballater Station in Scotland. This enchanting illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on 19 October 1901. In this picturesque scene, we witness the regal couple surrounded by an array of magnificent horses. Their majestic presence is enhanced by their elegant attire and poised demeanor. As they engage with their subjects, it becomes evident that their genuine warmth and approachability endear them to all. The lush highlands provide a stunning backdrop for this encounter between royalty and commoners. It is a testament to the enduring bond between the British monarchy and its people, even amidst such grandeur. This print not only captures a historical moment but also offers us a glimpse into an era when horse-drawn transport was still prevalent. From racehorses to ponies, shire horses to stallions, these animals add depth and vitality to the composition. "The King and Queen in the Highlands" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a window into history—a reminder of our rich heritage intertwined with nature's beauty.
