EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Edward VII, the future King of England, in his youthful and carefree days as the Prince of Wales in 1873. The image shows Edward, dressed in casual attire, wearing a bargee hat and with his hands casually tucked into his pockets. The bargee hat, a popular fashion accessory during the Victorian era, was often worn by the British aristocracy while boating or engaging in outdoor activities. Edward, born on November 9, 1841, was the eldest son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. He became Prince of Wales upon his father's death in 1861 and held that title until his mother's death in 1901, when he ascended to the throne as King Edward VII. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of the future monarch, showcasing his relaxed and informal demeanor. The image is believed to have been taken during a leisurely outing, perhaps along the River Thames or another picturesque waterway. Edward's easygoing expression and casual posture contrast sharply with the formal portraits and stiff poses typical of the time, offering a more humanizing portrayal of the future king. The photograph is a testament to the Prince of Wales's love for the outdoors and his affinity for water sports. Edward was an accomplished yachtsman and a keen angler, and this photograph captures him in his element, enjoying the simple pleasures of a day spent on the water. This evocative image, taken in 1873, offers a fascinating glimpse into the personal life of one of Britain's most intriguing monarchs, providing a window into the past and a reminder of the rich history and traditions of the British monarchy.
