EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a precious moment in the history of the British monarchy, featuring the five eldest children of the Duke and Duchess of York, who would later become King George V and Queen Mary, consort of Britain. The image shows Prince Edward, later Edward VIII and Duke of Windsor, as a toddler, playfully peeking out from behind his older sister, Princess Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood. Mary, born in 1897, is dressed in a frilly white dress and holds a toy, while her brother, the future King George VI, born in 1895, stands tall and serious in his sailor suit. Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, born in 1900, and Prince George, Duke of Kent, born in 1902, complete the lineup of the young royals. The children's childhoods were filled with duty and tradition, as they were raised to one day assume the throne and uphold the British monarchy's rich history. This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these future monarchs and their close-knit family dynamic.
