EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a radiograph of the hand belonging to H. R. H. The Prince of Wales, dating back to approximately 1897. This remarkable X-ray image provides a unique glimpse into the anatomy of the future King Edward VII's hand, granting us insight into his physical being beyond what meets the eye. With permission from G. Houghton & Son, this extraordinary piece is featured in Sir Herbert Maxwell's book "Sixty Years A Queen: The Story of Her Majesty's Reign" published by Harmsworth Bros in London during that era. It serves as a testament to both medical advancements and the fascination with royalty prevalent at that time. The photograph not only captures an important moment in history but also symbolizes the enduring legacy of Queen Victoria, who reigned for 60 years and was known as Alexandrina Victoria. Moreover, it highlights her son, Prince Albert Edward Christian George Andrew Patrick David - later known as King Edward VII - who would go on to become one of Britain's influential monarchs. This monochrome image stands as a tribute to science and medicine during the nineteenth century when radiography was still emerging as an innovative field. Through this rare artifact preserved by The Print Collector, we are transported back in time to witness an intriguing blend of artistry and scientific exploration within British society.
