EDITORS COMMENTS
The Royal Betrothal: A Historic Moment in the Life of HSH Princess Victoria Mary of Teck, 1891 This image, titled "The Royal Betrothal - HSH Princess Victoria Mary of Teck," is an engraving from the prestigious British weekly newspaper, The Graphic, published between July and December of 1891. The photograph, though not credited to a specific artist, offers a fascinating glimpse into the royal engagement of Princess Victoria Mary of Teck and Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale, later known as Prince Eddy. The young Princess Mary, the future Queen Mary of Teck and Queen Consort of the United Kingdom, is depicted in an elegant Victorian dress, adorned with intricate lace detailing and a high collar. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place by a delicate jeweled hairpiece. The future Queen is shown with a demure expression, her hands delicately folded in her lap. Prince Albert Victor, the second eldest son of King Edward VII, is also dressed in formal attire, wearing a dark suit and a cravat. He gazes intently at his betrothed, his hand resting gently on the arm of the chair beside her. The couple's engagement was announced on January 25, 1891, and their wedding took place on July 26, 1893. The print, published by the renowned James Russell & Sons, showcases the fashion trends of the time, with the Princess's dress and hairstyle reflecting the ornate and detailed clothing popular during the nineteenth century. The image is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the British royal family and the historical significance of this royal engagement.
