EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from 1876, we witness a remarkable moment during Edward, Prince of Wales' state visit to India. The future King Edward VII, known for his adventurous spirit and love for hunting, is depicted fearlessly aiming his rifle at a majestic tiger. This snapshot captures the essence of British royalty's fascination with exotic game and showcases the prince's prowess as a skilled marksman. Dressed in traditional English hunting attire, Prince Edward stands tall on an elephant's howdah – a grand platform designed specifically for royal hunts. The regal creature serves as both transportation and protection against any potential threat posed by the formidable tiger lurking in the dense Indian jungle. The intensity of the scene is palpable; one can almost hear the thunderous roar echoing through the air as Prince Edward takes aim. His unwavering determination reflects not only his passion for hunting but also his commitment to embracing local customs during diplomatic visits. This historic image offers us a glimpse into an era when monarchs were revered adventurers who traversed continents in search of thrilling experiences. It reminds us that even those born into privilege were not immune to danger or excitement. As we admire this engraved print today, let it serve as a testament to human curiosity and our enduring fascination with nature's most magnificent creatures.
