EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a facsimile of a letter dated 10th August 1623 from King James I to his son, Prince Charles. Printed by Manzi Joyant & Co. in Paris in 1904, this collotype reproduction offers us a glimpse into the intimate correspondence between father and son during an important historical period. The letter was written when Prince Charles was residing in Madrid, and it reveals the king's earnest request for his son to fulfill a task previously assigned to him. In this heartfelt message, King James implores Charles to complete the task promptly and urges him to leave behind his mistress in Spain if she refuses to return with him. The urgency conveyed through these words reflects the importance of completing this mission without further delay. As we examine this remarkable piece of history, we are reminded of the complexities that existed within royal families during that era. The handwriting on display serves as a testament to both the personal nature of their communication and the artistry involved in penmanship at that time. This photograph from The Stapleton Collection not only captures an intriguing moment between two prominent figures but also provides insight into their relationship dynamics and highlights their commitment towards fulfilling their duties as rulers of Great Britain. It is indeed a fascinating artifact that invites us into an intimate exchange between father and son amidst political challenges and familial obligations.
