Fine panorama of Queen Victoria's wedding to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha in 1840 at the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace, resplendent with the pomp and ceremony one might expect from the first marriage of a reigning English Queen since Queen Mary in 1554. Queen Victoria was just 21 at the time, and her husband a few months younger. They were married for 21 years during which time they had 9 children.
