King Edward VII on the Royal Barge: A Historic Moment on the Thames at Eton, 1909 This photograph captures a significant moment in British royal history as King Edward VII, the eldest son of Queen Victoria, graces the Royal Barge during his visit to Eton College on the River Thames in 1909. The King, dressed in formal attire, exudes an air of regal confidence as he surveys his surroundings from the ornate barge, adorned with the Union Jack and other royal flags. The visit to Eton, his old school, was an opportunity for King Edward VII to connect with his past and rekindle memories of his formative years. The occasion was also a chance for the King to showcase his support for the institution and its students. The river Thames, a symbol of British heritage and tradition, provided the perfect backdrop for this historic event. The image of King Edward VII on the Royal Barge is a testament to the rich history and enduring legacy of the British monarchy. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when grandeur and tradition reigned supreme. The King's presence on the barge, surrounded by the tranquil waters of the Thames and the picturesque Eton College, serves as a reminder of the deep-rooted connection between the monarchy and the British people. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is a valuable historical document that offers a unique insight into the life and times of King Edward VII. It is a must-have for any collection focused on British royalty, history, or the River Thames.
