EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the vibrant hues of an autumnal Canadian landscape, this commemorative postcard pays tribute to the late King Edward VII, also known as the "Peacemaker King" (1841-1910). The image captures a poignant moment as the monarch, with a sense of resignation, utters his final words, "Well, it is over now, but I think I have done my duty." The autumnal setting, with its brilliant maple leaves, symbolizes the transient nature of life and the passage of time. The Canadian backdrop serves as a fitting reminder of the global impact of this monarch's reign, which extended beyond the borders of his native United Kingdom. King Edward VII, the seventh monarch of the House of Windsor, ruled from 1901 until his death in 1910. His peaceful demeanor and diplomatic skills earned him the moniker "Peacemaker," as he navigated the complex political landscape of Europe during a time of great uncertainty. This commemorative postcard, with its inset portrait of the late king, serves as a poignant reminder of the solemn occasion and the historical significance of Edward VII's reign. The words etched on the card, "In Memory of His Late Majesty King Edward VII," encapsulate the collective mourning felt by the people of Canada and the world as they bid farewell to a revered monarch. This postcard, a testament to history, stands as a poignant reminder of the loss and the enduring legacy of King Edward VII, the Peacemaker.
