EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1921, during the Indian Tour of the Prince of Wales. Here we see a young Edward VIII, future King of Great Britain, engaging in an exhilarating tiger hunt in India. Mounted on a majestic Indian elephant, he confidently rides through the water-filled landscape with his eyes fixed on his target. Dressed in colonial attire and sporting a pith helmet, the prince embodies the spirit of British imperialism that prevailed during this era. Armed with a powerful weapon at hand, he symbolizes both power and authority as he ventures into the wild. The image captures not only an adventurous moment but also reflects upon the complex relationship between Britain and its colonies during that time. It serves as a reminder of how hunting expeditions were often used as displays of dominance by imperial powers. As we observe this historical photograph, it is important to acknowledge its significance within the context of its creation. Published years later following George V's death and Edward VIII's coronation, it became part of "A Royal Souvenir" commemorating this pivotal moment for British royalty. Through FGH Salusbury's skilled illustration technique, this print transports us back to an era where kings hunted tigers while riding elephants - an image that evokes both awe and contemplation about our shared history.
