EDITORS COMMENTS
Edward VIII and Mrs. Simpson at Chateau de Cande, France (Mary Evans Picture Library / P Journal 37) This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in the controversial and scandalous reign of King Edward VIII of the United Kingdom. Taken in 1937 at the picturesque Chateau de Cande in France, the image shows the King, dressed in casual attire, seated next to his lover, Wallis Simpson, on the terrace of the chateau. The couple's relaxed and intimate demeanor belies the political turmoil and public outcry that surrounded their relationship. Edward VIII, who ascended to the throne in 1936, created a sensation when he abdicated just six months later due to his desire to marry the American socialite, Mrs. Simpson, who was already divorced and had two living ex-husbands. The British monarchy and the public were shocked by the King's decision, as divorce was not an option for a monarch at the time. The couple's visit to Chateau de Cande, which was owned by the Duke and Duchess of Windsor (as Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson became known after their marriage), was one of several clandestine meetings they held in Europe to evade the press and public scrutiny. The image of the King and Mrs. Simpson at the chateau, with its idyllic setting and seemingly happy couple, serves as a poignant reminder of the complex and controversial events that unfolded during this period in history. The photograph, taken from Mary Evans Picture Library's P Journal 37, offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in the history of the British monarchy and the personal lives of its enigmatic figures. The image's timeless beauty and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection of royal history or historical photography.
