EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Edward VII, the future King of England, in his role as Prince of Wales during the early 20th century. The image, taken around 1910, depicts Edward in full nautical garb, embracing the maritime traditions of the British Royal Family. He wears a bargee hat, a distinctive headgear associated with boatmen and river navigators, adding an authentic touch to his attire. In his hand, he holds a telescope, scanning the horizon with the serious expression of a seasoned sailor. Edward's connection to the sea was deep-rooted. Born on November 9, 1841, he spent his childhood in the coastal town of Sandringham, where his father, Prince Albert, instilled in him a love for sailing and the sea. Edward's passion for the nautical life continued into adulthood, and he was known to be an accomplished yachtsman. This photograph, taken by renowned British photography studio Boning & Smal, offers a glimpse into Edward's leisurely pursuits and his dedication to the traditions of the British monarchy. The image is a testament to the Prince's love for the sea and his commitment to maintaining the rich maritime heritage of the Royal Family. As the future King, Edward VII would go on to rule from 1901 until his death in 1910. This photograph, captured during his time as Prince of Wales, serves as a reminder of his deep connection to the sea and the enduring legacy of the British monarchy's maritime traditions.
