EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming postcard image captures a moment in time from the historical archives of the Mary Evans Picture Library. The photograph features the young Edward, Duke of Kent (1935-2010), the only son of George, Duke of Kent (1902-1942) and Princess Marina, Princess of Greece and Denmark (1906-1968). The Duke of Kent was born on September 23, 1935, at St. James's Palace in London, during a time of great change and uncertainty in European history. His parents, who were married in 1934, were popular figures in British and Greek society, and their union represented a symbol of unity between the two countries. In this photograph, the toddler Duke of Kent is seen sitting on a wooden chair, dressed in a smart outfit and wearing a small crown on his head. His mother, Princess Marina, is seated beside him, holding a book and smiling warmly at the camera. The Duke's father, George, Duke of Kent, stands behind them, looking down at his son with pride and affection. The image is reminiscent of a simpler time in history, before the upheaval of World War II, which would later claim the lives of both the Duke of Kent and his father. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the young Duke's early childhood and the close bond he shared with his parents. The postcard, which bears the caption "EDWARD, DUKE OF KENT. Son of George, Duke of Kent and Princess Marina of Greece," is a precious keepsake from the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the royal family and the history of the time. This image is a must-have for history enthusiasts, royalty collectors, and anyone interested in the history of the British monarchy.
