EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from 1901, three young royals - Princess Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood, Prince Edward of Wales (future Edward VIII), and Prince Albert of York, later known as King George VI - are captured in a playful moment during their childhood. The siblings, who are dressed in sailor suits, are seen laughing and enjoying each other's company on a sunny day. Princess Mary, the eldest of the three, is positioned in the middle, with her brothers, Prince Edward and Prince Albert, on either side. Princess Mary, born in 1897, was the only daughter of George, Prince of Wales, and his wife, Princess Mary of Teck. She was known for her kindness, generosity, and strong sense of duty. Prince Edward, born in 1894, was the eldest son of the Prince of Wales and would later become King Edward VIII in 1936 before abdicating the throne. Prince Albert, born in 1895, was the second son and would eventually ascend to the throne as King George VI in 1936. The photograph offers a rare glimpse into the childhood of these future monarchs, showcasing their close bond and playful personalities. The sailor suits they wear reflect the popular fashion of the time and add to the charming atmosphere of the image. Overall, this photograph is a precious reminder of the early years of three remarkable individuals who would shape the course of British history.
