1864 Book Case Carte Curtain Joubert Morning Relaxed Visite
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a young and relaxed Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, in his morning dress during a studio session in 1864. The Prince, who would later reign from 1901 to 1910, is depicted sitting in a plush armchair with a book in hand, exuding an air of sophistication and charm. The warm, inviting light filtering through the curtains adds to the cozy atmosphere of the scene. The Prince's attire, consisting of a crisp white shirt, striped waistcoat, and elegant morning coat, is a testament to the formal dress code of the time. The ornate bookcase in the background, filled with leather-bound volumes, speaks to the Prince's intellectual pursuits and love for literature. This photograph, a carte-de-visite or CDV, was taken by the renowned French photographer, Joubert, and is a rare glimpse into the personal life of one of Britain's most beloved monarchs during the 1860s. The Prince's relaxed demeanor and casual setting contrast sharply with the formal portraits and official images typically associated with royalty, offering a unique and intimate glimpse into his character. This historic photograph is a must-have for any collection focused on British royalty, history, or the 1860s. Its high-quality print, combined with its rich historical significance, makes it a valuable addition to any home or office.
