Captured in Time - A Glimpse into the Lives of Kings and a Tutor
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to two significant moments in British history. In 1911, we witness a young Prince Albert Frederick Arthur George, later known as King George VI, alongside his older brother Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David Windsor, who would become the infamous ex-King Edward VIII. They are accompanied by their tutor, Mr. Hansel, during their time at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. Fast forward to 1937, and we see these same figures reunited at Balmoral once again. By this point, Prince Albert has ascended to the throne as King George VI after the abdication of his brother Edward VIII. The image offers a glimpse into their formative years - an era of education and preparation for royal duties that shaped their destinies. The boys stand tall with pride while dressed impeccably in traditional Scottish kilts and caps. This remarkable photograph is part of Major J. T. Gorman's book "George VI, King and Emperor" published by W. & G Foyle Ltd. , London in 1937. It serves as a testament to the enduring fascination surrounding Britain's aristocracy and provides valuable insight into the lives of these influential figures during a pivotal period in history. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it reminds us of the weighty responsibilities shouldered by those born into royalty – shaping nations while navigating personal challenges amidst public scrutiny.
