EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment in time, depicting the three eldest children of the Prince of Wales, who would later reign as King George V, Edward VIII, and George VI. From left to right, we see Prince Edward, later known as King Edward VIII and the Duke of Windsor, dressed in a charming Highland outfit, suggesting the image was taken at their Scottish residence, Balmoral. Next to him is his sister, Princess Mary, who would become the Countess of Harewood. The youngest brother, Prince Albert, wears a classic sailor suit, a popular outfit for boys of the era. The siblings' youthful innocence and playful expressions convey a sense of familial warmth and happiness. The Prince of Wales, later King George V, was known for his love of Scotland and the Highlands, and it is not surprising that his eldest son would be seen in traditional Scottish attire. The contrast between their outfits highlights the individuality of each child, reflecting their unique personalities. This historical portrait offers a glimpse into the early lives of these future monarchs, showcasing their sibling bond and the informal, playful side of royal childhood. The image is a testament to the rich history of the British monarchy and the enduring legacy of the Wales family.
