EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Dressing Case from 1858. A gift presented by the Duchess of Kent to Victoria, Princess Royal, on her wedding day to German Emperor Frederick III. The exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this mid-19th century English wood engraving. The dressing case itself is an ornamental masterpiece, adorned with gold and silver accents that shimmer delicately against its antique charm. Its elegant design features a mirror, comb, hairbrush, and perfume bottles made from ivory and glass. This object not only served practical purposes but also symbolized the opulence and refinement associated with Victorian society. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion where two royal families united through marriage. It represents more than just a vanity item; it embodies the deep bond between mother (the Duchess of Kent) and daughter (Victoria), as well as the union between nations. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully captured this historical artifact for us to appreciate its beauty and significance today. Let us marvel at the intricate details preserved within this image - a testament to human artistry throughout centuries gone by.
