Scenes at Balmoral (1896)

This is the first film to feature a British monarch. The film, with its original colour tinting restored, includes footage of Queen Victoria, Tsar Nicholas II and Turi, the Queen's Pomeranian. Queen Victoria and members of her family were filmed at Balmoral by the son of royal photographer W Downey on 3 October 1896. Downey used a camera made by the firm's employee TJ Harrison, which ran 60mm film to make the first moving pictures of Victoria. The film also features Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra, the Duke and Duchess of Connaught, and an Indian servant tentatively identified as Ahmed Hussain.
