EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in December 1935 near the picturesque town of Split on the Dalmatian coast, we find Prince Edward, later to become the Duke of Windsor, and his lover, Wallis Simpson. At the time, Prince Edward was the heir to the British throne, but his desire to marry the American divorcee, who was already married to her second husband at the time, caused a scandal that ultimately led him to abdicate the throne in December 1936. The royal couple's cruise down the Dalmatian coast was a much-publicized event, with the press following their every move. The photograph captures a moment of relaxation and intimacy, as the Prince and Wallis sit together on the deck of a yacht, with the crystal-clear waters and rugged coastline of Croatia in the background. The image is a poignant reminder of a time when the personal lives of the royal family were subjected to intense public scrutiny. The photograph is a significant historical document, shedding light on a pivotal moment in British royal history. It was taken during a period of great change, as the monarchy adapted to the modern world and the public's expectations of their royals evolved. The image of Prince Edward and Wallis Simpson together, in the sun-drenched Mediterranean, is a powerful symbol of the personal and political upheaval that followed in their wake. This photograph, from the Iln archive at Mary Evans Prints Online, is an important addition to any collection of royal history or historical photography. It offers a rare glimpse into a moment of personal history that had far-reaching consequences for the British monarchy and the world at large. The image is available for licensing for historical and educational use, providing researchers, historians, and enthusiasts with a valuable primary source for the study of this fascinating period in history.
