EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of relaxation and camaraderie between Prince Albert, Duke of York (future King George VI) and the beloved character 'Old Smiler' during the Point-to-Point races at Great Brington, Northamptonshire, in 1921. The Duke, dressed in a smart hunting suit, leans casually against a fence, sharing a bit of local gossip with Old Smiler, as they both watch intently as his brother, Prince George, Duke of York (later King George V), rides to victory in the race organized by the Pytchley Hunt and the Lifeguards. With a cigarette in hand, the Duke embodies the spirit of the 1920s English countryside, where the aristocracy and local community came together to enjoy the thrill of horse racing. The warm, sunlit scene showcases the charm and charisma of the Duke, who would later ascend to the throne in 1936, and offers a glimpse into the rich history of rural British sporting traditions.
