The Prince of Wales with friends on a raft, the Riviera, c1930s. The future King Edward VIII enjoys a dip. Illustration from George V and Edward VIII, A Royal Souvenir, by FGH Salusbury, a souvenir book published as Edward VIII was crowned following the death of his father, George V, (Daily Express Publication, London, 1936). In this photograph captured in the 1930s on the picturesque Riviera coastline of France, we witness a carefree moment shared by none other than the Prince of Wales himself - later known as King Edward VIII. Accompanied by his close companions and surrounded by the sparkling Mediterranean Sea's azure waters glistening under the sun's warm embrace. The prince exudes an air of youthful joy as he takes a refreshing plunge into the sea while his friends eagerly await their turn on an inviting wooden raft nearby. This candid snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when royalty could relish in simple pleasures without constant public scrutiny. The women accompanying them are adorned in elegant swimming costumes and caps that were fashionable during that time period. Their presence adds grace to this scene filled with laughter and camaraderie. This remarkable print serves not only as a visual reminder of British history but also captures timeless moments shared among friends amidst stunning natural beauty. It transports us back to an enchanting era where summer holidays along glamorous coastlines were cherished memories for those fortunate enough to experience them.
