Aged sixteen - Prince Albert, Naval cadet at Osborne, c1910
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that offers a glimpse into the early life of one of Britain's most iconic monarchs. Taken from the Coronation Souvenir Book of 1937 and edited by Gordon Beckles, this image showcases the young Prince Albert Frederick Arthur George during his time as a naval cadet. Dressed in his naval uniform with an air of confidence, Prince Albert stands tall against the backdrop of Osborne House on the Isle of Wight. The stately home exudes grandeur and serves as a reminder of the royal heritage he was born into. The photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also symbolizes the transition from boyhood to adulthood for Prince Albert. As he gazes directly at the camera, there is an undeniable sense of determination in his eyes – foreshadowing his future role as King George VI. This portrait holds historical significance as it documents an important period in British history – bridging two centuries and capturing both pre-World War I innocence and post-war resilience. It allows us to reflect upon the journey undertaken by this young prince who would later become known for leading his nation through some of its darkest hours during World War II. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by The Print Collector, we are reminded once again that even those destined for greatness start their journey humbly, just like any other boy standing proudly in their uniform dreaming about what lies ahead.
