EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dignified presence of Prince Edward Augustus, Duke of Kent and Strathearn, a prominent figure in 19th-century Britain. The artist, E Scriven, skillfully portrays the prince in his distinguished military dress uniform, showcasing his noble lineage as the fourth son of King George III. Prince Edward's significance extends beyond his royal heritage; he was also the father of Queen Victoria. This connection to one of Britain's most iconic monarchs adds depth to this portrait. As commander-in-chief in North America during 1799, Prince Edward demonstrated leadership and strategic prowess. Sir William Beechey masterfully captured Prince Edward's regal essence through this engraving.
