EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from 1928, taken at the Royal Horse Show in Richmond, we see a heartfelt moment between His Royal Highness the Duke of York, later King George VI, and his father, King George V. The Duke, wearing a military uniform with a bright red sash, extends his hand in a warm and friendly greeting towards his father, who is dressed in a dark suit and a top hat. The two royals share a moment of connection before heading into the arena to inspect the finest bloodstock in the land. The Duke of York, who would ascend to the throne in 1936 following his father's death, is shown shaking hands with his father, King George V, in this charming image. The photograph captures the close relationship between the father and son, as they share a moment of pride and admiration for each other. The setting of the Royal Horse Show adds to the grandeur of the scene, with the lush greenery and elegant horses in the background. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the 1920s, an era of elegance and sophistication, and the strong bond between the Duke of York and his father, King George V. The image is a testament to the rich history of the British monarchy and the traditions that have been passed down through generations. The Duke of York's future reign may have been uncertain at the time, but in this moment, he is simply the loving and devoted son, greeting his father with a warm embrace.
