Frederick Louis (1707-1751), Prince of Wales, 18th century (1912)
Frederick Louis (1707-1751), Prince of Wales, 18th century (1912). Prince Frederick was the eldest son of George II. He was born into the House of Hanover and, under the Act of Settlement passed by the English Parliament in 1701, was in the direct line of succession to the British throne. He moved to Great Britain following the accession of his father and became the Prince of Wales. He predeceased his father however, and the throne, upon the death of George II in 1760, passed to Prince Fredericks eldest son, George, Prince of Wales, who reigned as King George III from 1760 until 1820. From Imperial Cricket, edited by P F Warner and published by The London and Counties Press Association Ltd (London, 1912)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Frederick Louis, the Prince of Wales in the 18th century. Born into the prestigious House of Hanover, he held a significant position as the eldest son of George II and was next in line to inherit the British throne. Moving to Great Britain after his father's accession, he assumed the title of Prince of Wales. Tragically, fate had other plans for Frederick Louis as he passed away before his father's demise. Consequently, upon George II's death in 1760, it was Frederick's own eldest son, George who ascended to become King George III and reigned until 1820. The photograph captures a direct gaze from Prince Frederick himself; an intense look that reflects both his royal stature and perhaps hints at the weighty responsibilities that lay ahead for him. The monochrome aesthetic adds a touch of timeless elegance to this portrait. Published in "Imperial Cricket" edited by P. F Warner and released by The London and Counties Press Association Ltd in 1912, this image offers us a glimpse into history - an era when royalty played an integral role not only within their own country but also on international stages. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of Prince Frederick's significance within the House of Hanover and how his untimely passing shaped British history forever.
