EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a young and dashing Edward, Prince of Wales, during his visit to the National Exhibition in Brisbane, Australia, in 1920. The Prince, who was the eldest son of King George V and Queen Mary, is seen here in casual attire, wearing a tweed jacket and holding a walking stick, as he engages with a group of women and men admirers. A large wolfhound, a breed favored by the Royal Family, lies at the Prince's feet, adding to the lively and friendly atmosphere of the scene. The National Exhibition in Brisbane, which took place from January to May 1920, was a significant cultural event in Queensland's history. The exhibition showcased various industries, arts, and sciences, attracting visitors from across Australia and overseas. The Prince's visit was a major highlight, and he was welcomed with great enthusiasm by the people of Brisbane. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a rare and precious document of this historic moment in Australian and royal history. The image captures the Prince's charisma and approachability, making it a popular choice among collectors and history enthusiasts. The presence of the wolfhound adds an intriguing element to the photograph, further highlighting the connection between the Royal Family and their beloved pets.
