EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a rare moment in history as King George V embarks on a hunting expedition in Nepal back in 1911. The image, taken by the talented photographer Ernest Brooks, showcases the monarch immersed in the thrill of the chase during his visit to the exotic land for big game shooting.
King George V's passion for hunting and adventure is evident in this snapshot from 1935, which was featured in The Illustrated London News special issue commemorating his Silver Jubilee. The regal figure of the king atop an elephant, surrounded by lush greenery and majestic mountains, exudes power and authority.
The juxtaposition of royalty and nature creates a striking visual narrative that transports viewers back to a time when kings ruled vast kingdoms and embarked on grand safaris. This photograph serves as a reminder of both the opulence and complexity of royal life during that era.
As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of King George V's legacy as a ruler who embraced tradition while also embracing new experiences. His adventurous spirit shines through in this image, immortalizing him as not just a monarch but also an intrepid explorer.
