EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Cradle of Henry V, a priceless artifact now proudly displayed at the New London Museum in Kensington Palace. Donated by King George V in 1912, the cradle was previously housed at Windsor Castle. The cradle, carved from richly decorated wooden panels, is a stunning example of Tudor craftsmanship, with intricate carvings adorning its surface. What sets this cradle apart from others of its kind, however, are the pair of magnificent falcons perched at either end. These birds of prey, symbolizing the monarch's power and authority, are a striking feature of the cradle and add to its regal allure. The cradle's history is as rich as its design. It is believed that Henry V himself may have used this very cradle as an infant, making it an invaluable piece of British royal history. The cradle's journey from Windsor Castle to Kensington Palace marked a new chapter in its storied past, as it became a centerpiece of the New London Museum's exhibit. King George V's generous donation allowed future generations to marvel at this magnificent piece of history and appreciate the skill and craftsmanship of its creators. The falcons at either end continue to watch over the cradle, reminding us of the enduring legacy of the monarchy and the rich history it represents.
