Queen Victoria's First Council - A Historic Gathering at Kensington Palace
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in British history - Queen Victoria's first council held at Kensington Palace on 21 June 1837. The image, an engraving by David Wilkie, offers a glimpse into the inner workings of the royal court during this pivotal period. The scene depicts a grand interior filled with courtiers and politicians, both male and female, gathered around their sovereign. Queen Victoria herself is portrayed as a young and determined ruler, ready to take on the responsibilities of her reign. Her presence exudes strength and poise as she engages with her advisors. Amongst those present is Lord Melbourne, the Prime Minister at that time. His wise counsel would prove invaluable to the young queen throughout her long reign. The atmosphere in the room is one of anticipation and seriousness; it is clear that important matters are being discussed. This remarkable print not only showcases historical figures but also provides insight into Victorian society's power dynamics and gender roles. It serves as a testament to Queen Victoria's intelligence and leadership qualities despite her youth. Preserved in private collections today, this image allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the artistry of Wilkie's engraving technique. It stands as a reminder of how far we have come since that fateful day when Queen Victoria embarked on her extraordinary journey as monarch of Great Britain and Ireland.
