EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history during the First World War. In this image from December 1914, we see His Royal Highness, the future King Edward VIII (1894-1972), at the age of 20. The young prince is seen leaving for British Headquarters after his royal visit to King Albert I of Belgium. The photograph showcases an era when automobiles were still a novelty and symbolized modernity. A sleek car stands ready to transport the prince on his journey through war-torn Flanders. This image not only highlights the importance of road transport during wartime but also provides a glimpse into the life and duties of royalty amidst conflict. The print is sourced from "The Great World War - A History". Volume II, edited by Frank A Mumby and published by The Gresham Publishing Company Ltd in London around 1920. Although its creator remains unknown, this remarkable piece offers us a rare visual insight into one of Britain's most influential figures during a tumultuous period. As we reflect upon this historical snapshot, it serves as a reminder of both sacrifice and duty that characterized those who served their nations during times of strife. It immortalizes an important chapter in our collective memory while honoring the bravery displayed by all involved in shaping our world today.
