EDITORS COMMENTS
King Alfonso XIII of Spain, known for his passion for polo, is seen here taking a much-needed break during a game at Santander in 1915. The monarch, dressed in the traditional polo attire of a tight-fitting jersey, breeches, and boots, is shown leaning on his mallet with a contented expression, while his horse stands quietly beside him. Accompanying him is Mr. Leopold Maza, a skilled polo player and friend of the king. The serene scene captures the camaraderie and sportsmanship that defined the royal game of polo during this era. King Alfonso XIII, who reigned from 1902 to 1931, was an avid polo player and an excellent horseman. His love for the sport began at a young age, and he often played with his father, King Alfonso XII, and his brother, Infante Don Alfonso. Polo was not only a favorite pastime but also a symbol of power and prestige, as the game was popular among European royalty and the wealthy elite. This photograph, taken in 1915, offers a glimpse into the history of Spanish royalty and the sporting culture of the time. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of King Alfonso XIII as a dedicated polo player and a symbol of the monarchy's connection to the people of Spain.
