EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion at Marlborough House, where an impressive Bear Trophy takes center stage. The engraving, created by Samuel Edmund Waller after the original artwork, showcases the grandeur of this remarkable piece. The Bear Trophy holds a fascinating story behind it - it was shot in Russia by none other than HRH the Prince of Wales during the Marriage Festivities of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh. This unique illustration was featured in The Graphic on July 31,1875. As we delve into this image, we are transported to a time when hunting and taxidermy were celebrated pursuits. The bear itself is a magnificent creature, symbolizing strength and power. Its presence evokes awe and admiration for both its size and beauty. Intriguingly, amidst this regal setting, we catch a glimpse of HRH the Prince of Wales enjoying his cigar while basking in his triumphant achievement. It serves as a testament to his adventurous spirit and love for exploration. This photograph not only immortalizes an extraordinary event but also offers us insight into historical customs and traditions surrounding marriage festivities during that era. It reminds us that art has the ability to preserve moments in time forever. Bridgeman Images has once again curated an exceptional piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection that captivates our imagination with its rich history and artistic brilliance.
