EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a rare moment of the Prince of Wales (later Edward VII) with his two eldest sons, Prince George and Prince Albert Victor. The young princes are dressed in sailor suits, reflecting their love for the sea and maritime adventures.
Prince George, on the left, would go on to become King George V of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, known for his leadership during World War I. His younger brother, Prince Albert Victor, later known as the Duke of Clarence, unfortunately passed away at a young age.
The image exudes a sense of familial bond and royal heritage as three generations of future kings pose together. The proud father looks on as his sons stand tall in their naval attire, hinting at the responsibilities that lay ahead for them as members of the British monarchy.
Taken in 1881, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the early years of these royal siblings' lives. It serves as a poignant reminder of their shared childhood experiences before they each embarked on their own unique paths within the royal family.
