EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the grandeur of an era long gone. In this historic image, HaKON VII and Queen Maud are greeted by exuberant crowds as they make their way through heavy snows towards the palace at Christiania (now Oslo) on November 25th, 1905. The scene is filled with palpable excitement as cheering spectators line the streets to catch a glimpse of their beloved monarchs. The carriage glides gracefully through the wintry landscape, leaving tracks behind in the fresh snow. Despite the biting cold, both HaKON VII and Queen Maud maintain regal composure, wrapped in luxurious furs that shield them from the elements. This illustration transports us back to a time when royal receptions were extravagant affairs that captured public imagination. It is a testament to the enduring fascination with royalty and their ability to captivate hearts across generations. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded of how transportation has evolved since then – from horse-drawn carriages to modern vehicles – yet some things remain constant: our admiration for kings and queens who symbolize tradition and continuity. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, this print serves as a window into an enchanting turn-of-the-century world where winter's chill couldn't dampen spirits or diminish adoration for these revered figures.
