EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in history - King Edward VIII at the Rapids in Kyoto, Japan, back in 1922. Taken by an English photographer from the 20th century, this image is now part of a private collection. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see King Edward VIII proudly seated on a boat amidst the powerful rapids of Kyoto. The flag of Great Britain flutters majestically behind him as he waves to onlookers with regal grace. As the heir to the throne, his presence exudes royalty and authority. The composition beautifully juxtaposes elements of both British and Japanese culture. The traditional Japanese boat glides effortlessly through the rushing river while oarsmen navigate its course with precision. This harmonious blend symbolizes the strong bond between England and Japan during that era. This photograph not only showcases King Edward's adventurous spirit but also serves as a testament to his global influence. It offers us a glimpse into an era when rulers were revered figures who commanded respect across nations. Preserved for decades within The Stapleton Collection, this image continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Its historical significance is further enhanced by being featured in F. G. H Salusbury's book "George V and Edward VIII: A Royal Souvenir" published by The Daily Express in 1936. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece of photography from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to an enchanting moment where
