Carte Mar16 Mayall Official Plinth Seventh Visite Youthful
EDITORS COMMENTS
This carte-de-visite captures a youthful and dashing Prince of Wales, Edward VII (1841-1910), in his naval uniform from around 1860. Edward, who would later ascend to the throne as King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions and Emperor of India, is depicted in this official studio portrait with an air of confidence and maturity beyond his years. The Prince, also known as the Seventh Earl of Darby and the Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay, served in the Royal Navy from 1855 to 1864. This photograph, taken during his naval career, showcases his impeccable posture and the intricate details of his uniform, complete with medals and insignia. The plinth on which the Prince stands adds an element of formality and grandeur to the image. The photograph was likely taken at the Mayall Studio, a renowned photography studio in London during the mid-19th century. This portrait offers a glimpse into the early life of a future monarch, showcasing his military prowess and the beginning of his illustrious reign.
