23rd Alexandra Ceremonial Dublin Dudley Lieutenant Procession Royals
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in the history of Anglo-Irish relations, as King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra make their grand entrance into St. Patrick's Hall in Dublin Castle for a court ceremonial on the evening of July 23, 1903. The royal procession, headed by Lord Dudley, the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, who bore the Sword of State, marks the beginning of the King's first official visit to Ireland since his ascension to the throne in 1901. The visit was a symbolic gesture of reconciliation between the British monarchy and the Irish people, following decades of tension and unrest. The King and Queen are elegantly dressed in their formal attire, with Edward VII wearing the Order of the Garter and Alexandra adorned with the Order of the Star of India and the Order of the Crown of India. The grandeur of the setting, with its ornate decorations and opulent furnishings, is a testament to the pomp and ceremony that surrounded the royal visit. This historic moment in British and Irish history is beautifully preserved in this stunning photograph, which offers a glimpse into the past and the complex relationship between two nations.
