In this photo print, we catch a glimpse of the grandeur surrounding the imminent visit of The Prince of Wales to Canada in 1923. As Lord Renfrew, he embarks on a luxurious journey aboard the renowned Canadian Pacific liner "Empress of France". The anticipation is palpable as preparations are made for his departure from Southampton. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the best suite on the principal deck of the liner, meticulously reserved for His Royal Highness. Its opulence and elegance speak volumes about the importance placed on accommodating royalty during this era. One can only imagine the comfort and luxury that awaited The Prince within those lavishly adorned walls. Commanding this magnificent vessel is Captain E Griffiths, RNR, who stands proudly at its helm. With his experienced leadership guiding them across treacherous waters, passengers can rest assured that their voyage will be both safe and memorable. This photograph encapsulates an era between wars when travel was not merely a means to reach a destination but an experience in itself. It serves as a reminder of how even royals were captivated by oceanic adventures and sought solace in lavish surroundings while exploring new horizons. Preserved through time, this monochrome snapshot offers us a window into history – an intimate moment frozen forever – showcasing both technological marvels like liners and timeless traditions associated with royal visits.
