EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in British royalty and sports history. The image features the future King George V, then known as the Prince of Wales, engaging in a friendly gesture during a rugby match between the students of Guys Hospital and the London Hospital in 1909. The Prince, dressed in a heavy overcoat and wearing a bowler hat, is seen greeting the players with a warm smile. The Prince's interest in sports was well-known, and he was a frequent attendee of various matches, often playing himself. This particular event took place at the Rectory Fields in London, and the Prince's presence no doubt added an extra layer of excitement for the students. The Prince's connection to Wales in his title adds an intriguing twist to the scene, as rugby has long been a popular sport in Wales. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the Prince's approachability and love for sport, as well as the camaraderie between the students of the two hospitals. The image is a testament to the rich history of British royalty and the enduring appeal of sports, making it a must-have for any collection focused on historical, royal, or sports-themed subjects.
