The Prince and Princess of Wales at at the gate of Rosenborg Castle, 1864. Creator: Unknown
The Prince and Princess of Wales at at the gate of Rosenborg Castle, [Copenhagen, Denmark], 1864. The future King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra in Scandinavia. 'This edifice, built by King Christian IV., is approached through a park or public garden, and over a foot-bridge crossing a moat that at one time surrounded the castle and formed an important element in its defence. The building is in the style of Italian Renaissance, grafted on the ancient Gothic of Northern Europe. Inigo Jones, at that period chief architect to the King, is said to have furnished the plan for Rosenborg'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a moment in history as the Prince and Princess of Wales stand at the gate of Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1864. The future King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra are seen exploring Scandinavia, with the majestic castle serving as a backdrop to their royal visit.
The image showcases the intricate architecture of Rosenborg Castle, built by King Christian IV in a blend of Italian Renaissance and Gothic styles. The castle is approached through a park and over a footbridge crossing a moat that once surrounded it for defense. Inigo Jones, chief architect to the King at that time, is credited with providing the plan for this impressive structure.
As we gaze upon this engraving from the "Illustrated London News" of 1864, we are transported back to a time when royalty roamed these grand fortifications. The Prince and Princess look regal yet approachable as they explore the entrance to Rosenborg Castle, symbolizing an era of elegance and sophistication.
This historical snapshot not only captures the beauty of Danish architecture but also immortalizes two figures who would go on to make their mark on British history as King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. It serves as a reminder of their travels abroad and their enduring legacy within European royalty.
