EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Alfonso, Prince of Asturias, is captured in a moment of contemplative introspection, as he embarks on a new chapter in his life following the proclamation of the Second Spanish Republic in 1931. The image, taken at Dartmouth Naval College in England, depicts the young prince in his naval uniform, gazing off into the distance with a determined expression on his face. At the time of this photograph, Alfonso was the heir apparent to the throne of Spain, having been born in 1907. However, with the outbreak of political unrest and the subsequent establishment of the Spanish Republic, the monarchy was forced into exile. In response, Alfonso considered his options, including the possibility of entering the British Navy and abandoning his claim to the Spanish throne. The photograph captures the sense of uncertainty and upheaval that marked this period in Spanish history. Alfonso's posture and gaze suggest a sense of resolve and determination, as he faces an uncertain future. The backdrop of Dartmouth Naval College, with its historic buildings and grand architecture, adds to the sense of tradition and history that surrounds the prince. Despite the challenges that lay ahead, Alfonso remained committed to his duties as a member of the Spanish Royal Family. He would go on to serve as the Carlist pretender to the Spanish throne during the Spanish Civil War, before being killed in action in 1936. Today, this photograph stands as a poignant reminder of a pivotal moment in Spanish history, and the complex personal and political dynamics that shaped the lives of those caught up in the revolution and exile.
