EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by renowned British artist Cecil Aldin depicts a historical moment in the life of Prince Edward, later known as Edward VIII, during one of his hunting expeditions in the early 1920s. The Prince of Wales, dressed in traditional hunting attire, is shown clearing a hedge with great determination and focus, his terrier companion eagerly following behind. The intricate details of the Prince's clothing, the textured foliage, and the expressive body language of the terrier bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time. Cecil Aldin (1874-1935) was a prolific and talented artist, best known for his sketches of animals and sporting scenes. His work was regularly featured in the Illustrated London News (ILN), for which he created a popular series of terrier sketches. This illustration, created in 1926, showcases Aldin's exceptional ability to capture the essence of the natural world and the human connection to it. The Prince of Wales' passion for hunting was well-documented in the press of the time, and this image offers a unique glimpse into his personal life and interests. The Prince's later abdication from the throne in 1936 and subsequent reign as Duke of Windsor are well-known chapters in British history, but this illustration serves as a reminder of his earlier life and the simple pleasures he found in the great outdoors. This evocative image, with its rich colors and dynamic composition, is a testament to Cecil Aldin's artistic talent and the enduring appeal of the hunting tradition in British culture.
