In this image, we see Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, son of King George V and Queen Mary of Teck, taking a well-deserved break during a halt at Mortimer Hill on 26 August 1924. The serene expression on Prince Henry's face as he enjoys his pipe is juxtaposed against the backdrop of rigorous training and manoeuvres that were common in Europe between the wars.
