EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking image from the 1280s, King Edward I of England presents his newborn son, Edward, as the first Prince of Wales at Caernarfon Castle in 1284. The regal atmosphere is palpable as the proud father, dressed in his royal robes and crowned with the Iron Crown of Wales, holds his infant son, who is swaddled and cradled in his arms. The mother, Queen Eleanor of Castile, stands beside them, her expression a mix of pride and adoration. The significance of this moment is underscored by the presence of the harp, a symbol of Welsh culture and tradition. The harpist in the background adds to the festive mood, as the court celebrates the birth of the future prince. The castle, a magnificent fortress built by Edward I to assert English control over Wales, looms in the background, a testament to the political and historical importance of this event. King Edward I's decision to grant the title of Prince of Wales to his son was a strategic move to strengthen English rule over Wales and to secure the loyalty of the Welsh people. The title would be held by the heir to the English throne until 1911, when it was revived for the future Edward VIII. This photograph, taken from an original painting in the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history and symbolism of this momentous occasion.
