EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in 1935, the Duke and Duchess of York, later King George VI and the Queen Mother, pay a visit to Moorfields Eye Hospital in London to officially open the new King George V extension. The Duke, dressed in a formal morning suit, and the Duchess, elegantly attired in a long coat and hat, are deeply engaged in conversation with a young patient, his face bandaged from a recent eye operation. The Duke's kind and attentive expression conveys his genuine concern for the wellbeing of the young boy, while the Duchess's gentle touch on his shoulder offers comfort and reassurance. Moorfields Eye Hospital, one of the oldest and most renowned ophthalmic institutions in the world, has been at the forefront of eye care and research since its founding in 1805. The new extension, named in honor of the King, was a testament to the hospital's commitment to providing the latest medical advancements and facilities for its patients. The 1930s were a time of great change and uncertainty in the world, with economic depression and political instability affecting many countries. Amidst these challenges, the Royal Family continued to play an important role in the lives of their people, providing a sense of stability and hope. The Duke and Duchess's visit to Moorfields Eye Hospital was a reminder of their dedication to serving the community and supporting those in need. This photograph captures a poignant moment in history, as the future King and Queen Mother connect with a young patient, offering him a glimmer of hope and optimism in the face of adversity. The image is a powerful reminder of the healing power of compassion and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
