His late Royal Highness the Prince Consort, from a photograph taken shortly before his death by Mayall, 1861. Prince Albert, husband of Queen Victoria, died after being diagnosed with typhoid fever. Albert died at 10:50 p.m. on 14 December 1861 in the Blue Room at Windsor Castle, in the presence of the Queen and five of their nine children. He was 42 years old. The contemporary diagnosis was typhoid fever, but modern writers have pointed out that Albert's ongoing stomach pain, which left him ill for at least two years before his death, may indicate that a chronic disease such as Crohn's disease, kidney failure or abdominal cancer was the cause of death. From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
