The factual accuracy of this description or the file name is disputed.

Reason: This photo has been taken in Royal Mausoleum at Frogmore, as in 1913 it was already completed (and with Queen Victoria's body also buried there). Compare with this painting, depicting the mausoleum's interior, and this photograph of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert's grave inside the mausoleum. Compare also with this photograph of the mausoleum's interior, taken by George Washington Wilson in 1876.

Title

Saint George's Chapel tomb

Description

Tomb of Queen Victoria's consort Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha as it looked in St. George's Chapel in Windsor before he was re-interned in the Royal Mausoleum at Frogmore House. The Arrases visited Windsor during their 1913 tour of Europe. Note on slide reads "Tomb of Prince Consort Albert. Windsor Castle." Edmund F. Arras (7/7/1875-10/19/1951), a prominent Columbus businessman and entrepreneur, founded one of Columbus, Ohio’s first property rental agencies in 1892. Trained as a lawyer, he graduated from OSU law school in 1896 and went on to hold positions in numerous civic groups around the city. He was particularly active within Kiwanis International and was involved with several local religious organizations. In 1913, he and his wife Elizabeth traveled to the World Sunday School Association Convention in Zurich, Switzerland. They continued on to travel extensively throughout Europe documenting their journey through photographs. Due to the timing of their trip, these photos comprise a valuable collection of images of European cities later devastated by war. The Arras family’s lantern slides and negatives include images from their 1913 travels through US east coast cities, Atlantic islands of the Azores, Madeira, Gibraltar and the countries of Algeria, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, England, and Ireland. Also included are images from their 1920 train journey from Chicago to the western US for the Kiwanis Convention in Portland. These photographs include images of Chicago, Denver and western National Parks.
