EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph, two young princes, Prince John of Wales (1905-1919) and his elder brother Prince George, Duke of Kent (1902-1942), are seen playing happily with their cousin, Prince Olav of Norway (1903-1991). The image, taken in 1909, captures a moment of joy and camaraderie between the three royals. Prince John and Prince George were the sons of King George V and Queen Mary of the United Kingdom. Their mother, Queen Mary, was the eldest daughter of King Christian IX and Queen Louise of Denmark, making Prince Olav a first cousin once removed to the two British princes. Prince Olav, who would later become King Olav V of Norway, was the only son of King Haakon VII and Queen Maud of Norway. At the time of this photograph, King Haakon was the reigning monarch of Norway, having assumed the throne in 1906 following the country's union with Sweden. The three young royals are dressed in casual attire, suggesting that the photograph was taken during a visit to Norway or a family gathering. Prince John, who was born in 1905, is seen wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, while Prince George, born in 1902, is wearing a long-sleeved shirt and trousers. Prince Olav, born in 1903, is wearing a similar outfit to Prince John. The photograph offers a glimpse into the close relationship between the three young royals, who were all part of the European royal family tree. It is a reminder of a time when royal families were closely interconnected, and their children grew up together, forming lifelong bonds. This photograph, taken over a century ago, is an important historical document that captures a moment of joy and camaraderie between three young princes. It is a reminder of the rich history and complex relationships that exist within the European royal families.
