EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant military studio portrait captures the late Prince Francis of Teck in his uniform, an image that serves as a poignant reminder of a life cut short. The Prince, who passed away at the young age of forty, was the second son of the late Duke of Teck and elder brother to Queen Mary of Teck, who was the wife of King George V. The late Prince's passion for work was evident throughout his life, and after an impressive career in the Army, he dedicated himself to various philanthropic pursuits. His latest endeavor was an ambitious fundraising effort to raise an astonishing £20,000 for the Middlesex Hospital. Prince Francis of Teck, GCVO, DSO, was born in 1870 and was a prominent figure in the early 20th century.
