EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures Queen Alexandra of Denmark (1844-1925), the beloved consort of King Edward VII, in a tranquil moment with her two cherished Japanese Chin dogs, Haru and Togo, in a beautiful garden setting, most likely at Sandringham Estate. The image, taken around 1925, showcases the Queen's regal elegance as she dons a stylish boater hat and a flowing dress adorned with intricate floral patterns. The serene atmosphere is further accentuated by the lush greenery and delicate ferns that surround her, creating an idyllic scene reminiscent of a bygone era. Queen Alexandra, who was born Princess Alexandra of Denmark, was the daughter of King Christian IX of Denmark and Queen Louise of Hesse-Kassel. She married the future King Edward VII in 1863 and served as the Queen Consort of the United Kingdom, the Dominions, and the British Empire until Edward's death in 1910. Throughout her long and devoted marriage, she was known for her loyalty, grace, and dedication to various charitable causes. The Japanese Chin dogs, Haru and Togo, were popular companions among the British royalty during this period. These small, elegant breeds were brought back to Europe from China and quickly gained favor among the aristocracy due to their affectionate nature and distinctive appearance. The presence of these charming dogs adds a playful touch to this photograph, further emphasizing the warmth and love that Queen Alexandra shared with her beloved pets.
