EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the 1280s, The First Prince of Wales, later known as Edward II, is depicted as a cherubic infant in the strong arms of his father, King Edward I. The tender moment between father and son, captured in this photographic print, conveys a sense of deep affection and protection. The young prince, born in 1284, was the eldest surviving son of the powerful and formidable monarch, who ruled England and Wales from 1272 until his death in 1307. Edward II was the heir to the English and Welsh thrones, and this photographic print offers a rare glimpse into the intimate world of the royal family during the Middle Ages. The prince is dressed in intricately embroidered clothing, a sign of his noble status, while his father wears a suit of armor, a testament to his warrior prowess. The presence of the king's loyal dogs, a bloodhound and an Irish wolfhound, adds to the heroic atmosphere of the scene. The tradition of depicting royalty with their dogs dates back to ancient Rome, and this photographic print continues that tradition, emphasizing the bond between man and beast. The dogs were not only companions but also protectors, guarding the royal family and their lands. The sword at the king's side is a further reminder of his military prowess and his duty to defend his kingdom. This photographic print, created by Terry Parker for Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1280s and the world of medieval royalty. It is a poignant reminder of the human side of history, showcasing the tender relationship between a father and his son, and the enduring traditions that have shaped the monarchy for centuries.
