EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of George I, King of Greece, in all his glory. Taken in 1912 by an English photographer, this portrait showcases the distinguished features of the Greek monarch. With a bald head and a well-groomed mustache, George I exudes authority and strength. Dressed in his military uniform adorned with medals, he stands tall as a symbol of power and leadership. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this photograph - from the intricate design on his uniform to the subtle expression on his face. George I's reign as King of Greece began when he was elected by the Greek National Assembly in 1863. A Danish prince by birth, he embraced his new role with dedication and commitment. However, tragedy struck during the First Balkan War when he was assassinated. This rare image offers us a glimpse into history, capturing a moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of George I's significant contribution to Greece and its people during his reign. Now part of a private collection, this remarkable photograph allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. As we gaze upon this portrait today, we are transported back to early 20th-century London where it was first published - forever preserving the memory of one extraordinary king.
