Eighth Observing Princes Proclamation Sixth Viii Watches Watching Albert
EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures a significant moment in British monarchical history as the young princes, Prince Edward (future King Edward VIII), Prince Albert (future King George VI), and Prince John, observe the Proclamation of King George V at St. James Palace in London, 1910. The Proclamation marked the formal announcement of King George V's accession to the throne following the death of his father, King Edward VII. The brothers, who were the eldest son, the Duke of York, and the youngest son, the Duke of Albany, respectively, watched the scene from the wall of Marlborough House, located near St. James Palace. Their expressions convey a sense of solemnity and anticipation as they bear witness to the momentous occasion. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of the young royals during this time of transition. The image is a poignant reminder of the continuity and tradition of the British monarchy, as the young princes went on to become monarchs themselves, reigning during pivotal periods in the 20th century.
