EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in the history of the British monarchy, as Prince Albert, Duke of York (future King George VI), and his brother, the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII), participate in the ceremonial handover of new colors to regiments of the Brigade of Guards in July 1922. The Duke of York, dressed in full military regalia, is prominently featured in the foreground, while his brother, wearing a busby hat, follows closely behind. King George V, who is not pictured, had handed over the new colors during the ceremony, marking a symbolic moment of continuity and tradition in the British military. The march past, which took place after the ceremony, showcases the regal procession of the guards, their gleaming horses, and the brothers' strong bond. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, offers a unique glimpse into the official and ceremonial role of the British monarchy and the close relationship between the Duke of York and the Prince of Wales, who would later ascend to the throne as King George VI and King Edward VIII, respectively.
