EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a young King Edward VII during his time at Oxford University. Dressed in the traditional mortar board and gown, he exudes an air of intelligence and sophistication. The image showcases the monarch's commitment to education and learning, as well as his dedication to fulfilling his royal duties. Taken by Hills & Saunders, renowned photographers from the late 19th to early 20th century, this portrait is a testament to their skill in capturing historical moments. It is part of a private collection that offers a glimpse into the life of one of Britain's most influential kings. The photograph was originally used as an illustration for J E Vincent's book "From Cradle to Crown: King Edward VII" published in 1902 by George Newnes. This publication aimed to provide readers with insights into the life and biography of King Edward VII. As we observe this image today, it serves as a reminder of the rich history surrounding British royalty. It also highlights the importance placed on education within royal circles during this era. This photograph not only documents an important period in King Edward VII's life but also offers us a glimpse into Victorian England and its cultural significance. Overall, this striking portrait encapsulates both the youthfulness and regality of King Edward VII while showcasing his connection with Oxford University - an institution that played a significant role in shaping him into the king he would become.
