EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a heartwarming moment between the Prince of Wales and a baby kangaroo named Digger. Taken in the early 20th century by an English photographer, this print showcases the unique bond between royalty and wildlife. The image is part of The Prince of Wales Book, published in the 1920s, which highlights the journey and travels of Edward VIII during his time as Prince of Wales. As he explores Australia, Digger becomes his loyal companion, symbolizing friendship across continents. In this portrait, we see the young prince tenderly holding Digger in his arms. The care and affection on his face reflect not only his love for animals but also a glimpse into British history. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into a different era when exploration was at its peak. Kangaroos are iconic symbols of Australia's wildlife heritage, making this encounter even more significant. It reminds us that despite being from different worlds, humans can form deep connections with animals. As we admire this timeless photograph from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it serves as a reminder that compassion knows no boundaries - whether they be geographical or species-related. The image invites us to appreciate both our shared humanity and our responsibility to protect all creatures who share our planet.
