@@geschiedschrijver But far less interesting. Victoria lived as a woman & a Queen. She was besotted with Albert. But Scotish John Brown brought her out of her self denial of life, he gave her life again. She says she doesn't want to be desturbed by anyone, even her elderly children & he does what she's told him. Victoria loved John & had his wedding ring on the 3rd finger of her left hand. With a framed foto of Brown in her left hand, a lock of his hair & his pocket watch. An era has been named after her. The Victorian Age. 👑
Amazing to think that, when the Queen in this film was born, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, James Madison, Napoleon, Beethoven, and Goethe were all still alive.
Too bad there was so little film footage of Queen Victoria, especially given the comprehensive collection of photos that survive of her. I have seem one photo of her smiling, what a change ! It lights up her face ! Quite beautiful.
Chris Cullen28 Could someone post that photograph.....would be a pleasure to see it......just dont find one of Lord M.......R. Sewell is too perfect in my head.....
Tasmar There is one on TH-cam. It is very distorted and has a lot of noise. You can just hear her enough to dispel the false belief that she spoke with a German accent. I knew her granddaughter, Princess Alice of Athlone, who at the time of her death was the oldest ever member of the Royal Family, dying aged 97. Princess Alice confirmed that she had a light English accent and never said We are not amused. The fact is that she was often and easily amused.
She stayed hidden away pinning for Albert & then with her Scottish gentleman. Her self pity was monumental, I’m unaware what her contributions to the country were besides offspring. Not right. She took an oath as Queen Elizabeth I & II did & didn’t live up to it, just fed off the public adding more to the public roster.
What strikes me is Queen Victoria was 79 when the film was shot. She was ancient by the standards of the day but by comparison look at how much more mobile and fitter our present Queen is at more than a decade older (92).
79 is still ancient for the majority of people throughout the world. Most people will not get close to 79. It is a blessing to have access to some of the most expensive homes in the world, modern medicine, are able to employ personal chefs, chauffeurs, housekeepers, gardeners, and do everything first class. If the majority had access to the Queen's resources, they too would have a fighting chance at living to be 90+ years of age in good health.
Stephen Guppy how can it shock you in those days you was lucky to live past 40 with all the diseases and bad hygiene. even in the royal circle there were rats in a palace... she was very lucky to live to the age she did. our queen now has the top medical care just when she has a cold she is given the best and nothing but the best queen Victoria had the best of her time but that was barley a touch on what we have now
I am just amazed that someone thought to record this gathering at this time in history. To see a moving video of Queen Victoria brings her so much more to life!
My Grandfather was 9 years old at the time of this film . And eventually would (16 years later) fight in the Great War for one of her sons. However, not British but German. Thankfully he survived and that's part of the reason that I'm here writing this comment!
You're writing your comment because you're a 🤡 with too much time on your hands. 🥱 The film claims it was shot in 1898 so is your grandfather 137 years old? Also the film is inaccurate because it shows a 20 year old alleged Queen Victoria who died in 1901 as a fattish older lady. Check Wikipedia for her picture. Cameras wouldn't have existed to record back then, where's the coronation or her wedding? It's like the 13 min clip of George 6th Coronation uploaded. Sure they didn't have much film or sound back then but they wouldn't have just recorded 13 mins. If it's lost why no one say? 🤷🏻♂️ It seems in perfect tact apart from a few frames. No Jump cuts or editing, just fake footage. Instead of watching 🥱 pieces of film and 🥱 trying to boor me when it comes to educating me on something like the first video game character pacman 1980 (or something like that) I suggest you get yourself a job. Stop watching Confederate soldiers online, and mistaking then for Patriots. Nothing is interesting there unless you're looking for stereotypes to hype up heated debate conversation. Question: are you so 🥱that you sit in a real estate property with giant 10G doors and 5G internet with marble floors and have model daughter's but didn't give a 📗📘📕🖍️ or 💰💵 To Charities where people can REALLY NEED IT?
If only that lady assisting her just in front of her had not had her head there. Her head just seemed to follow along maddeningly. She didn't know the kind of incredible piece of history she was blocking.
Of course she has. She will have seen everything to do with her royal connections. She also has the baby christening gown that was worn by victorias children.
Wow, it's really a pleasure to see Queen Victoria herself active and moving around in this very historic video. She is definitely one of the longest reigning monarchs in history, and she was well-loved by many people. I wonder what she was like in person. What an amazing video.
You should check out the footage video of Queen Victoria visiting Dublin, Ireland in 1900. It has been digitally restored, slowed, sharpened and you see her face clearly.
Why was there Colonialism, after the transatlantic slave trade? The Romans had slaves. Yes African had slavery amongst themselves, but did they ensue mass genocide when they sold their people to Caucasians? Greed, profit, was the part of all monarchist led systems. The point is the Europeans came looking as the criminals they sent as indentured workers to Australia and the American colonies couldn't hack it. They created a monster! These women were strong despite failing in battle against the French who eventually colonized them. Africa would have been the same as China, Europe and America if their wasn't money and racial deceitful carnage, and bamboozlement and that the damned point UK!
A note of interest (to some) In those days the coach brakes were somewhat fierce where they needed to be applied. The jolt at 0:18 is where an experienced and considerate coachman would release the breaks briefly so the horses could regain relaxed muscle tension having been abruptly halted. Common-place practice back then. Rarely applied or needed today.
In those days, you couldn't pan around a scene with a film camera very easily. Motion picture cameras were large, heavy, clunky things that needed to be propped up on a stand, so you pretty much just had to film in place. It wasn't until several decades later that film cameras that were smaller and easier to move around, were invented and easily accessible by the average person.
My grandad - mum's side - was born in 1865, and died in 1941. I was born in 1954 so I never got the chance to speak to a real eastender who knew first-hand about the Elephant Man, Jack the Ripper, the Zulu and Boer Wars, man's first flight and so on..I wish I could've spoken to him
Isn’t it a shame that there’s no video of the Queen at the garden party? I would have loved seeing her walking around. I’ve only seen her in her carriages. I never realized how dangerous it was to get down from a carriage! The horses are unpredictable & I’m sure it took many men to keep the horses from continuing to move once the driver had come to a stop. You could break a leg just trying to disembark!!
The horses didn't move the carriage around after the driver applies brakes. In this video, the carriage moves forward once because the driver released the brake momentarily so the horses could regain positive muscle flexion.
Just amazing really. I seen this and my mind tried to go even further back in time like 100 years previous and in turn, much more, as venturing into the 16th century. Imagine how it might be if photography had been invented then .(1598 for example).. so we wouldn't have to rely on those historic drawings and paintings as the only images to allow us to relate to such times. Imagine moving films of J.S Bach at the keyboard of compositions he had famously composed !.
Amazing, seeing Queen Victoria, in a 1898 video. 126 yrs ago (now 2024). I guess it took every ounce of her strength to get in and out of that carriage. Just wow!
It is highly interesting and impressive to see the visuals of the royal family from generations after generations The commentry and video are informative
Wow. I'm grateful this exists but it's a shame there is not more. The technology is available and she's QUEEN and I feel there should have been more footage of her over the years. Great upload thanks.
@@BertGraef True about movies. But the first sound recording and reproduction device was invented in 1877. I read somewhere that a sound recording of Victoria's voice does exist, but it's not widely known because it's likely she had a German accent.
@Nenethegreat W True, but I just wish she'd been filmed more and on various occasions! The voice clip is on TH-cam but even remastered it's hard to make out.
She was the bedrock of British Empire. One of the most powerful women in the history of mankind if not the most powerful! Can't think of any other women who ruled a bigger empire.
Poor women must've been so hot wearing those huge swathes of cloth and hats, and to go the bathroom must've been a mammoth chore. Interesting glimpse of life all those years ago. 👍
feels surreal over how people there probably thought "shes the last queen we witness in our lifetime" when Queen Victoria died,, and now people today are saying Queen Elizabeth II was probably be the last queen we witnessed in our lifetime
It seems like such a far cry from the decadence of modern Britain. The men stand up with a straight back; proud, confident and genteel. The women wear beautiful, elegant clothing intended to preserve their modesty. One can’t help but wonder if something was lost in the past century; perhaps destroyed by the trauma of the World Wars, the effects of American consumerism and the spread of a sordid socialist mindset. I don’t know what it was, but I hope one day we can rediscover it.
Workhouses, children being treated like chattel, racism run amuck, no rights for women, upper class snobbery and decadence. Yes, life was so much better back then...
Harry Flashman are you kidding me “America consumerism” what does that have to do with this video? or for that matter anything to do with The UK then and now? The British people very good consumers with or with out Americans.
The straight backs and elegant clothing only applied to like 5% of the population. 95% of the men did to much back breaking work to have straight backs and confidence and 95% of the women were too poor to afford elegant clothing.
Amazing to think that at this time the well-known cricketer WG Grace was still alive and would be until 1915 (IIRC). Would be great to see video of him with the Queen!
Please rescan this film in 4K or 8K, stabilise it, adjust the speed and perhaps increase the fps by frame interpolation (just as Peter Jackson did with his war movie), maybe colorise it as well. It makes such a difference and brings it much closer to today.
She wore black the rest of her life because she was literally in mourning the rest of her life ,Albert was her whole world outside the children.if I loved someone as much as she did her husband and they passed ,I would prob do the same as her.she kept the black for just that

Yes I think this too, they’ve all gone and so has the time which they lived in. It’s fascinating and sad in equal measure.
Beautifully and eerily said.
And now it's on TH-cam which is crazy to me!

Please rescan this film in 4K or 8K, stabilise it, adjust the speed and perhaps increase the fps by frame interpolation (just as Peter Jackson did with his war movie), maybe colorise it as well. It makes such a difference and brings it much closer to today.
I dont think I will see an older video than that
Living history
Amazing I bet there's not many videos of her knocking about

She was never off her back
The fact that she wore black the rest of her widowed life is just plain weird to me. But then it was over a hundred years ago.
jdaze1: What's 'weird' about that?
She wore black the rest of her life because she was literally in mourning the rest of her life ,Albert was her whole world outside the children.if I loved someone as much as she did her husband and they passed ,I would prob do the same as her.she kept the black for just that
Surely this isn't the only film of her. Probably the Royal family has more.
I don't think the royal family would retain footage of her that hasn't already been released but I could be wrong.
There's another one on TH-cam from 1900 in Ireland.
126 years queen 👑 Victoria
To think that grand son/daughters of most of the people in this clip are already dead by now is crazy
I thought the queen never ‘slides’. 😅 but she had to slide out from the far end of the carriage. Love the footage. Thanks for sharing!
An Ancient Video 😍
Real history of British people then wow 120 yrs ago. Seems like yesterday to them
Needs Brass Band playing "Hail Britannia!"
All Hail Britannia
She was truely a great ruler
Felt bad for those horses having to carry all that weight.
Chilling how most (if not all) of the people that are in this footage are now dead...
yes I thought queen Victoria weight about 250 pounds at the end of her reign. or so I"m told. beautiful dresses on the ladies.
she was a glutton. never had a hungry day in her long life, unlike millions of her 'subjects'.
Every party will come to an end.
I can't believe cameras existed 120y/a
Itz Yasin_Islam Still cameras have existed since, I think, the late 1830s.
2021 is watching 👀😳
Who was the woman getting out first? It looked like Alexandra of Denmark but I am not sure.
120 soon!
