Happy centenary wedding anniversary to Bertie and Elizabeth! 100 years ago today (m. 26/04/1923).

'…I do love you Bertie, & I feel certain that I shall more & more.'

'You know how I love her & will always take care of her [...] to me, she is everything.'

Excerpts from The Queen Mother: The Official Biography by William Shawcross.

Photos, top: Prince Albert, Duke of York (later George VI) and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon on their wedding day, April 26th, 1923. Prince Albert is wearing the full dress uniform of the Royal Air Force with the rank of group captain. Elizabeth's dress, typically 1920s Medieval Revival in style, was crafted with ivory-coloured chiffon moire, pearls, and silver thread. The intention was for the dress to coordinate with a gift of Flanders lace from Queen Mary. Elizabeth also opted to break with the tradition of wearing a tiara, and instead chose a headdress of leaves. Credit: Bassano Ltd.

Centre and bottom: Prince Albert and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon during their honeymoon, April 26th to May 7th 1923. After the wedding breakfast at Buckingham Palace, the newlyweds rode in an open landau (a four-wheeled carriage) to Waterloo Station. From there they travelled by train to Polesden Lacey in Surrey, which had been lent to them by the Honourable Mrs Greville. Sources: Royal Collections Trust, The National Trust.

¿Historias cortas para no dormir y así no tener pesadillas?

Alessandro Bassano nació en Londres el 10 de mayo de 1829 y fue un fotógrafo inglés, un destacado retratista de la realeza y la alta sociedad en el Londres victoriano. Alessandro Bassano fue hijo del italiano Clemente Bassano y su esposa inglesa, Elizabeth Browne.

Bassano recibió una temprana formación con los artistas Augustus Egg y William Beverley.Abrió su primer estudio en 1850 en Regent Street. El estudio se trasladó a Piccadilly 1859-1863, a Pall Mall y luego a Old Bond Street en 1877.

También hubo un estudio filial Bassano en King's Road, Brighton desde 1893 hasta 1899.

El estudio de Old Bond Street estaba decorado con impresiones fotográficas de carbón y bustos de yeso, y era lo suficientemente grande como para acomodar una escena de fondo panorámica montada en rodillos, que proporcionaba una variedad de escenas al aire libre o fondos de corte.

La foto de Lord Kitchener de Bassano formó la base del póster de reclutamiento de la Primera Guerra Mundial. Bassano se retiró del trabajo en el estudio alrededor de 1903, cuando las instalaciones fueron restauradas y relanzadas como "Bassano Ltd, Royal Photographers". Murió en West Acton, Londres el 21 de octubre de 1913.

El estudio se mudó una vez más en 1921. La mudanza incluia alrededor de un millón de negativos, todos sistemáticamente numerados, que tuvieron que ser trasladados de las bodegas del local a la nueva ubicación en Dover Street.

La compañía se convirtió en "Bassano y Vandyk" en 1964. Al año siguiente incorporó a Elliott & Fry, una asociación fotográfica que había estado funcionando en Baker Street desde 1863. En 1977, la compañía se convirtió en "Industrial Photographic", con sede en Moreton Street.

Muchas placas de vidrio de Bassano Studios, incluidas algunas de Alexander Bassano, se encuentran en la National Portrait Gallery de Londres. El Museum of London tiene una gran cantidad de placas relacionados con la moda.

La National Portrait Gallery organizo una exposición de su trabajo, Alexander Bassano: Victorian Photographer en 2013, en el centenario de su muerte.
