EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a war-time portrait of H. R. H. The Prince of Wales, taken in 1916 during the First World War. The creator remains unknown, but their skillful composition has immortalized this significant moment in history. Edward VIII, also known as Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David Windsor, joined the Grenadier Guards in June 1914 to serve his country on the front lines. This portrait showcases him dressed in military uniform, donning khaki attire that symbolizes his dedication to the armed forces. The image portrays a young prince looking away from the camera with an air of determination and resilience etched upon his face. As heir to the throne and future King Edward VIII of Great Britain, he exemplifies courage and leadership amidst one of humanity's darkest periods. Taken from "The War Illustrated Album De Luxe - Volume VI: The Spring and Summer Campaign of 1916" edited by J. A. Hammerton, this photograph is a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during this tumultuous time. Displayed within its intricate frame or carefully preserved within an album collection, this print evokes admiration for those who served their nation selflessly during World War I. It stands as a tribute not only to Prince Edward himself but also to all members of the British Army who fought valiantly for freedom and peace.
