This photograph print, hailing from the early 1900s, showcases an assemblage of British monarchs known as The Seven Royal Edwards. The image, produced around the time of the coronation of King Edward VII in 1902, presents a regal and historic tableau. The first Edward, Edward the Confessor, is depicted in the top left corner, clad in his traditional robes and holding a model of Westminster Abbey, the site of his coronation and burial. Edward I, the second Edward, is shown in the top right corner, wearing a crown and holding a scepter, symbolizing his power and authority. Moving down the left side, we encounter Edward II, with a stern expression and wearing a fur-trimmed robe. Edward III, the third Edward, is portrayed in armor, reflecting his military prowess. Edward IV, the fifth Edward, is depicted in the bottom left corner, wearing a simple robe and holding a scepter and orb. On the right side, we find Edward V, the short-lived king, who is shown with a solemn expression and wearing a crown. Edward VI, the sixth Edward, is shown as a young boy, wearing a fur-trimmed robe and holding a book, symbolizing his education and learning. Finally, King Edward VII, the seventh Edward, is depicted in the center, wearing the Imperial State Crown and holding the scepter and orb. This photograph print offers a unique glimpse into the rich history of British monarchy, showcasing the portraits of seven monarchs named Edward, each with their own distinct character and legacy.
