EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from the 19th century, we are transported to a moment of royal education and camaraderie. Titled "Royal Sailor Boys, the Sons of the Prince of Wales learning how to splice a Rope" this print captures an intimate scene that speaks volumes about tradition, duty, and family ties. The image depicts two young boys, Prince Albert Victor and George V, sons of the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII), engrossed in their lessons on board a naval ship. Dressed in sailor uniforms, they diligently learn the art of splicing a rope under the watchful eye of their instructors. This illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on May 25th, 1878. It offers us a glimpse into the upbringing and preparation for future roles within the Royal Navy for these young princes. Their immersion in naval training reflects not only their privileged status but also highlights their commitment to serving their country. As we admire this historical artwork preserved by Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we can't help but marvel at how it encapsulates both innocence and responsibility. These royal sailor boys symbolize continuity within British royalty while embodying qualities such as discipline and dedication that would shape them into influential figures later in life. Through this enchanting engraving, we are reminded that even those born into privilege must undergo rigorous training to fulfill their destined roles. It serves as a testament to generations past who have dedicated themselves to protecting our shores through service in armed forces
