Alice, born in 1868, was a prominent figure in Edwardian society and held the title of "the most fascinating woman in England" according to The Sketch magazine in 1906. Her intriguing story began when she became the mistress of King Edward VII, the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom from 1901 to 1910.

She was known for her striking appearance, with her dark hair, captivating eyes, and elegant style. This photograph, taken in 1906, showcases Alice's timeless beauty and the sophisticated air that made her such a fascinating figure. King Edward VII and Alice Keppel's relationship began in the late 1890s, and it is believed that they met during a visit to the spa town of Biarritz in France. Despite the controversy surrounding their affair, Alice remained a constant presence in the king's life, even after his marriage to Princess Alexandra of Denmark in 1863. Alice's influence over the king extended beyond their personal relationship, as she was also a trusted advisor and confidante. Her connection to the royal court allowed her to wield significant power and influence in Edwardian society. This photograph is a testament to Alice Keppel's enduring allure and the captivating story of her relationship with King Edward VII.
