EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time as Queen Mary, the consort of King George V, poses with her two eldest sons, Albert, Duke of York (future George VI), and Edward, Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII), at the Royal residence of Balmoral in Scotland, circa 1905. The family's traditional Scottish Highland dress adds an authentic touch to the image, reflecting their deep connection to the land and the rich history of the Scottish monarchy. Queen Mary, dressed in a tartan shawl and a bonnet adorned with feathers, looks proudly at her sons. Albert, on the left, wears a kilt, a sporran, and a sgian-dubh (a small knife worn in the sock), while Edward, on the right, dons a similar outfit, complete with a plaid scarf draped over his shoulder. The boys' youthful energy and playful expressions add a sense of warmth and joy to the image. Balmoral Castle, set amidst the stunning Scottish landscape, has long been a favorite retreat for the British monarchy, providing a respite from the formalities of court life. The photograph's charming composition and the family's elegant attire make it a captivating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the royal family during a simpler time. This photograph, taken around 1905, is an important historical document, showcasing the close bond between Queen Mary and her eldest sons, as well as their connection to their Scottish heritage. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the British monarchy and the rich history of the Scottish Highlands.
