EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph from 1850, members of the Cambridge University Deputation present their grievances to Queen Victoria at Windsor Castle. The University of Cambridge, along with the City of London and the University of Oxford, had come to express their indignation towards the Bishop of Rome, or the Pope, for attempting to exercise power that the realm of England had long ignored. The scene is set in the grand halls of Windsor Castle, with Prince Albert, the Prince Consort of Queen Victoria, standing at the forefront, dressed in the robes of the Chancellor of Cambridge University. Surrounded by a group of gentlemen, Prince Albert receives the deputation with courtesy and engages in conversation with some of those he recognizes. The engraving, published in the Illustrated London News, captures the formal attire of the men, with their tailored suits, waistcoats, and top hats, reflecting the fashion trends of the 19th century. The image conveys the seriousness of the occasion, as the men present their address to the Queen, who is not depicted in the photograph. Prince Albert, a German prince, reads the address with great clarity and emphasis, further emphasizing the gravity of the situation. The event marked a significant moment in British history, as the Church of England asserted its position against the influence of Catholicism in the realm. The photograph serves as a testament to the political and religious tensions of the time, as well as the role of the monarchy in shaping the country's response to such issues. The image, from the collection of The Print Collector, is a valuable historical document that offers insights into the fashion, politics, and social dynamics of the 19th century.
