Queen Victoria at the Performance of Gounod's 'Mors et Vita' at the Albert Hall, 1886
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1901, we are transported back to a momentous evening in British history. Queen Victoria, known as Alexandrina Victoria (1819-1901), is depicted seated in the Royal Box at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in South Kensington, London. The occasion? A performance of Charles Gounod's magnificent oratorio "Mors et Vita" on February 26th, 1886. The image captures Queen Victoria's undivided attention as she listens intently to Gounod's mesmerizing composition. Her regal presence commands respect and admiration from all those around her. As Empress of India and sovereign over Great Britain and Ireland, she was not only a powerful monarch but also a patroness of the arts. This photograph serves as a testament to Queen Victoria's enduring love for music and her unwavering commitment to supporting cultural events throughout her reign. It offers us a glimpse into an era when live performances were cherished occasions that brought people together. Preserved within the pages of "The Illustrated London News Record" this image stands as a tribute to Queen Victoria's glorious reign spanning from 1837 to 1901. It reminds us of her significant contributions to British society and leaves us with an appreciation for her dedication towards fostering artistic expression. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the melodies resonating through the grand hall while witnessing firsthand how one woman shaped an entire nation through both power and passion.
