Yet even when the young Queen Victoria moved in in 1837, much of the palace was still unfurnished and uncomfortable. Victoria was delighted to move into Buckingham Palace. She couldn' t move in fast enough. In fact, she insisted on moving in before it was really ready, and when she got there, she found that most of the rooms were uncarpeted, very little furniture, but initially she was absolutely thrilled. To her, it represented her queendom. It represented authority and independence. Two years after moving into the Palace, Queen Victoria married her German cousin, Prince Albert of SaxeCoburg Gotha. And his arrival would profoundly influence the look of the Palace and the tastes of the new young Queen. In this room, a youthful Queen Victoria and Prince Albert face each other, a memorial to one of history' s great royal love stories. And they' re both depicted in ancient Greek costume. But more importantly, Queen Victoria here is not the weaker sex. She' s the crowned empress, while Albert is a military general. |
