EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history as the Prince of Wales, later known as King Edward VIII, participates in the Grafton Hunt Races on his beloved pet dog. Taken in the 1930s, this image showcases the future king's passion for equestrian sports and his impeccable riding skills. Dressed in traditional riding gear, complete with a top hat and elegant riding dress, Prince Edward exudes regal charm and confidence. His connection with his pet dog is evident as they both appear poised and ready to take on the racecourse together. The illustration comes from "George V and Edward VIII: A Royal Souvenir" a commemorative book published after George V's passing when Edward was crowned king. The photo serves as a reminder of the royal family's love for horse racing and their active involvement in British sporting events. With its monochrome aesthetic, this print transports us back to an era of grace and sophistication. It not only celebrates Prince Edward's athletic pursuits but also offers a glimpse into the world of fox hunting during that time period. As we admire this remarkable portrait captured by FGH Salusbury, we are reminded of the rich history surrounding Britain's royal family and their enduring legacy within society.
