EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a moment of leisure and camaraderie as The Duke of Windsor, formerly known as Prince of Wales and later King Edward VIII, enjoys a round of golf at the picturesque Mandelieu course in Cap D'Antibes on the French Riviera. The Duke, who reigned as King of the United Kingdom from 1936 to 1936 before abdicating, is seen in relaxed mode, focused on his swing with a serious expression. Accompanying him is Archie Compston, a successful English professional golfer of the 1920s, who was renowned for his long-hitting ability and charisma. The idyllic setting of the French Riviera, with its azure waters and lush greenery, provides a stunning backdrop to this sporting scene. The Duke and Compston's shared passion for golf reflects the monarch's love for this popular pastime, which he continued to enjoy throughout his life. This photograph, taken in 1939, offers a glimpse into the private world of a king and his golfing companion, capturing their enjoyment of a simple pleasure away from the formalities of royal duties.
