Built
in 1899, the Victoria and Albert was
not commissioned until the year of Queen Victoria's death, becoming
the official royal yacht of King Edward VII. The splendor of
her elegant lines
and opulent furnishings provided a regal presence to many royal
occasions and regattas across Europe. As the largest and most
magnificent royal yacht in Europe, Victoria and
Albert III served three monarchs, carrying King
GerogeV and Queen Mary at the Jubilee Review of 1935, then,
in 1937, King GeorgeVI and Queen Elizabeth at the Coronation
Review.In 1939, in her senior years, she went into reserve upon
the outbreak of war,and was ultimately replaced years later
by the royal yacht Britannia.
She
is depicted in this painting performing her royal duties in the early
1930's during a review of the British Fleet in the Solent. On her
port quarter are Queen Elizabeth class battleships, and on her starboard
are anchored the battle cruisers HMS Repulse
and HMS Hood.
