The International Exhibition: silver statuette of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: silver statuette of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, 1862. The statuette of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales [future King Edward VII], exhibited by Mr. Harry Emanuel, is a very spirited and artistic work, and has been produced in oxydised silver so as to give greater effect to the work of the artist. The Prince is represented as Colonel of the 100th (Royal Canadian) Regiment, acknowledging a salute bareheaded, and with his hat in his hand. His charger is at the same time pawing the ground in a very spirited and free manner; indeed, there is much force and fire in the horse, whilst the pose of the Prince is graceful and his seat sound and horsemanlike...we may well congratulate the artist, Mr. Marshall Wood, on the success and beauty of his performance. The manufacturer has very wisely determined to reproduce this work in bronze, and, doubtless, many who are not prepared to purchase the figure in one of the precious metals will yet be rejoiced to possess a copy in a metal almost as beautiful, more fitted for artistic purposes, and even more enduring'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a silver statuette of His Royal Highness Prince Albert Edward, later known as King Edward VII, from The International Exhibition held in 1862. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, but it was exhibited by Mr. Harry Emanuel. The statuette represents Prince Albert Edward as the Colonel of the 100th (Royal Canadian) Regiment, acknowledging a salute bareheaded, with his hat in hand. The lifelike representation of the Prince is further enhanced by the spirited and free-moving pose of his horse, which paws the ground with great force and energy. The artist, Mr. Marshall Wood, skillfully captured the essence of the Prince's grace and horsemanlike abilities in this work. The oxydised silver used in the creation of the statuette adds to its artistic value, giving the piece a unique and beautiful appearance. The manufacturer, recognizing the widespread appeal of this work, made the wise decision to reproduce it in bronze. This bronze version allowed many individuals who could not afford the precious metal version to still possess a copy of this stunning work of art, which is almost as beautiful, more suitable for artistic purposes, and even more enduring than silver.
