The Queen Enjoying a Leisurely Drive in the Beautiful Grounds of the Grand Hotel at Grasse During Her Riviera Holiday
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by artist Alexander Lamont Henderson, we catch a glimpse into the spring of 1891 when Queen Victoria embarked on a delightful holiday in the picturesque Riviera. The image showcases Her Majesty seated gracefully in a horse-drawn trap, elegantly dressed and radiating regal charm. Surrounded by the lush greenery and enchanting architecture of the Grand Hotel at Grasse, it is evident that this moment was one of tranquility and leisure for the monarch. The gentle sway of her trusty steed as they traverse through Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur adds to the idyllic scene. The queen's love for animals is apparent as she confidently holds onto the reins, displaying her affinity for equestrian pursuits. This snapshot captures not only her passion but also highlights an era where horse-drawn transportation was prevalent. As we delve into this historical photograph from V. R. I. Her Life and Empire, we are transported back to an age when women were breaking barriers and asserting their presence in public spaces. Queen Victoria's presence here symbolizes strength, independence, and leadership. This remarkable image serves as a testament to both royal grandeur and human connection with nature during simpler times – reminding us all of our shared history while celebrating moments of respite amidst busy lives.
