"QUEEN VICTORIA & SON. First of May, 1851. Arthur, the Duke of Connaught (1850-1942), third son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, receiving a gift from his godfather, the Duke of Wellington, on his first birthday". This print captures a significant moment in British royal history. Taken on May 1st, 1851, it showcases young Arthur, the Duke of Connaught and third son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. In this heartwarming scene, we witness an intimate family gathering as Arthur receives a special gift from his godfather - none other than the legendary Duke of Wellington. The image is brought to life through a mixed mezzotint by Samuel Cousins in 1852 after an original painting by Franz Xaver Winterhalter. The attention to detail beautifully portrays the Victorian era's elegance and sophistication. Arthur's cherubic face radiates innocence as he sits upon his mother's lap while being presented with this precious token from one of Britain's most esteemed figures. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the close-knit bond shared within this illustrious family. As we admire this portrait today, we are reminded not only of its historical significance but also its timeless charm that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. It serves as a testament to both the enduring legacy left behind by Queen Victoria and her beloved son Arthur – forever etched in our hearts as symbols of royalty and grace during one of England
