EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, featuring Albert Edward, the Prince of Wales and future King Edward VII. Taken in 1841 during his visit to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and India, this image showcases the royal's adventurous spirit as he stands atop a majestic elephant that has been hunted down. In an era when big game hunting was considered a symbol of power and bravery among European monarchs, this photograph offers a glimpse into the life of royalty during the Victorian era. The sheer size of the deceased elephant emphasizes both its grandeur and the prince's prowess as a hunter. Albert Edward's visit to Ceylon and India marked an important diplomatic mission for Britain's colonial interests at that time. This image not only reflects his role as a representative of British monarchy but also highlights his fascination with exotic lands and cultures. Photographer Ken Welsh skillfully captures this historical moment, allowing viewers to appreciate both the artistry behind the composition and its cultural significance. As we gaze upon this striking print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one aspect of Albert Edward's multifaceted personality – that of an intrepid adventurer exploring distant lands while embodying regal authority.
