    Queen Alexandra: Iconic Royal Portrait of a Danish Empress

    $19.95

    This photograph features Queen Alexandra, the wife of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom. Born on December 1, 1844, in Denmark, she became queen consort in 1901 when her husband ascended the throne following the death of Queen Victoria. Alexandra was known for her grace and charity work, particularly in support of hospitals and troops during the First World War. Her public appearances, often captured in photographs like this one, helped to solidify her role as a beloved figure among the British people.

    The image was produced by the Bain News Service, an influential photography studio that specialized in news and editorial photography during the early 20th century. Utilizing glass negatives, this method allowed for sharp detail and clarity, essential for documenting notable figures such as Queen Alexandra. The lack of a recorded date on this particular photograph suggests it could have been taken during her time as queen or perhaps earlier, while she was still the Princess of Wales. Regardless, images like this serve as historical records that offer a glimpse into the royal lifestyle and the changing fashion and social norms of the era.
