EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1881 in the enchanting Forest of Mar, Scotland. The image showcases the Duke of Fife's game larder, a place where hunting enthusiasts would store their prized catches. Standing before this impressive display are none other than the Prince and Princess of Wales, later known as King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra from 1901. The royal couple is seen during a deerstalking holiday, immersing themselves in the beauty of nature and indulging in one of their favorite pastimes. The Duke proudly shows off his bountiful collection of freshly hunted deer carcasses hanging from hooks, providing sustenance for many meals to come. This Victorian-era scene exudes an air of sophistication and opulence while highlighting the strong connection between British royalty and country pursuits. It serves as a testament to both tradition and privilege within British society during that time. Godefroy Durand skillfully captures this moment through his engraving technique, emphasizing every detail with monochrome precision. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we can't help but be drawn into its timeless allure - a snapshot frozen in time that speaks volumes about hunting culture, social status, and the natural beauty found within Scotland's rugged landscapes.
