1. Title: "Prince Henry of Wales: A Naval Salute in a Unique Sailor Suit" This historical photograph captures Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester (1900-1974), the third son of King George V, during his early childhood years. The image showcases the young prince in an unusual yet charming sailor suit with a skirt, adding an intriguing twist to the traditional naval attire. Prince Henry's unique sailor suit, which features a knee-length skirt, is believed to have been a popular fashion trend for boys during the early 20th century. The ensemble includes a white collared shirt, a red tie, and a navy blue sailor jacket adorned with gold buttons. The skirt, made of the same navy blue fabric as the jacket, adds a feminine touch to the otherwise masculine outfit. The photograph, taken during the early 1900s, captures the young prince in a playful moment as he salutes with a sailor's hat in his hand. The image not only showcases Prince Henry's youthful energy but also highlights the unique fashion trends of the era. As the third son of King George V, Prince Henry held a significant place in the British royal family. He later became the Duke of Gloucester upon his father's death in 1936. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of this historical figure, providing a unique perspective on the royal family's history. The image, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for history enthusiasts, royalty collectors, and anyone interested in the fashion trends of the early 20th century. This photograph is not only a testament to the rich history of the British monarchy but also a reminder of the unique and often unexpected aspects of royal life.
