EDITORS COMMENTS
The Duke of York at a shooting party in 1922, (1937). A captivating photograph captured by King George VI himself, showcasing the leisurely side of royalty. In this timeless image, the Duke of York exudes an air of relaxation and elegance as he indulges in his favorite pastime – bird hunting. Dressed impeccably in tweed jacket and plus fours, the Duke epitomizes the quintessential British sportsman. His hat adds a touch of sophistication to his attire while shielding him from the sun-dappled woods that serve as his backdrop. With shotgun in hand, he displays both skill and poise as he takes aim at unseen targets. Surrounded by fellow enthusiasts from high society, this shooting party is not just about sport but also camaraderie. The atmosphere is one of conviviality and shared passion for outdoor pursuits. Amidst laughter and friendly banter, these men find respite from their royal duties. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - an escape from the pressures of monarchy into nature's embrace. It offers us a glimpse into the private life of a member of Britain's royal family who seeks solace through recreation amidst war-torn times. As we admire this print today, we are reminded that even those born into privilege seek moments to unwind like any other person. It serves as a testament to our shared humanity - regardless of social status or title.
