EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VIII and Duke of Windsor, is captured in the prime of his adventurous spirit during his most recent safari in East Africa. The Prince, dressed in safari attire, is seen in a jovial mood as he shares a light moment with Denys Finch-Hatton, a renowned big game hunter and the inspiration for the character of Denys Finch Hatton in Karen Blixen's autobiographical novel, "Out of Africa." The novel, published under the pen name Isak Dinesen, immortalized Finch-Hatton's charisma and daring exploits in the African wilderness. The year was 1931, and the Prince's safari party had set out to explore the vast plains and rugged landscapes of Kenya. Finch-Hatton, an accomplished pilot, accompanied the Prince in his Gypsy Moth biplane, adding an extra dimension to their adventure. The photograph captures the camaraderie and excitement that defined their journey. Tragically, this photograph was taken shortly before Finch-Hatton's untimely death. On March 24, 1931, just a few weeks after this image was taken, Finch-Hatton's Gypsy Moth crashed during a flight, claiming his life. The loss of the charismatic hunter left a profound impact on the Prince and the safari party, adding a poignant undertone to their African adventure. This photograph stands as a testament to the Prince's adventurous spirit and his friendship with the legendary Denys Finch-Hatton, a man whose life was as captivating as the African wilderness itself.
