More than 17,500 photographs, prints and private and official papers relating to Prince Albert, consort of Queen Victoria, have been published on a new website to mark the 200th anniversary of his birth.
The images have been published on Prince Albert: His Life and Legacy at https://albert.rct.uk which sheds fresh light on Albert’s contribution as Queen Victoria’s unofficial Private Secretary, a guide and mentor to some of the greatest national projects of his day, university chancellor, art historian, collector, and patron of art, architecture and design. It gives new insight into Albert’s achievements before his death aged just 42, his impact on Victorian society and his influence on our world today.
As part of the Prince Albert Digitisation Project, by the end of 2020 some 23,500 items from the Royal Archives, the Royal Collection and the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 will be published online. These include private and official papers, catalogues of Prince Albert’s private library, his study collection of more than 5,000 prints and photographs after the work of Raphael, and 10,000 photographs collected and commissioned by Albert.
