EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph print, we are transported back to the summer of 1898 as we witness a moment of leisure and elegance. The Prince and Princess of Wales, adorned in their regal attire, stand on the deck of the majestic Royal Yacht "Osborne" as it glides through the sparkling waters off Cowes. Their eyes fixed on the horizon, they watch intently as sleek racing yachts compete in a thrilling race. The scene is filled with an air of sophistication and privilege. The royal couple's presence adds an aura of grandeur to this already picturesque setting. As members of European royalty, their attendance at such events was not only expected but also served to strengthen diplomatic ties between nations. The lithograph captures every intricate detail - from the billowing sails of the racing yachts to the gentle ripples created by their passage through water. Melton Prior's skilled hand brings life and vibrancy to this historical moment. This image serves as a reminder that even amidst their royal duties, princes and princesses can find joy in simple pleasures like watching a yacht race. It offers us a glimpse into a world long gone but forever preserved within these delicate lines and shades. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are reminded that history is not just about dates or battles; it is also about moments like these – moments where individuals come together to celebrate beauty, skill, and unity across borders.
