EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in 1931, we find two future British royals, T.R.H. The Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII, Duke of Windsor) and Prince George (later Duke of Kent), engaged in a friendly golf match at the picturesque Constant Spring Golf Links in Kingston, Jamaica. The Prince of Wales, accompanied by his partner, Lord Ednam (right), triumphantly emerges as the victors of this round, having outplayed Prince George and Mr. J.C. Frost (left), who served as private secretary to Sir Reginald Stubbs, the Governor of Jamaica. The Prince of Wales, dressed in golfing attire, adds a touch of regal charm to the scene. Notably, he dons a local headgear, a tobacco planter's hat, which he wears with ease and confidence, reflecting his appreciation for the rich Jamaican culture. This image captures a moment of leisure and camaraderie between the brothers during their visit to the Caribbean island. The 1930s, a decade marked by economic prosperity and social change, is brought to life through this evocative photograph. The brothers' relaxed demeanor and the lush, tropical setting of Constant Spring Golf Links evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. This photograph stands as a testament to the enduring bond between the royal family and their colonial territories, as well as the shared love for the popular sport of golf.
