EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history at Saltzburg, Austria in 1937. The image features the infamous couple, King Edward VIII and Mrs Simpson, who caused quite a scandal during their time together. Published in the Coronation Souvenir Book of 1937 and edited by Gordon Beckles, this photograph offers a glimpse into the casual side of British royalty. In this snapshot, we see the Duke and Duchess of Windsor looking away from the camera as they enjoy their day outdoors. Both dressed in stylish attire befitting their status, they exude an air of elegance even in this relaxed setting. The Duke dons a suit while holding onto his hat with one hand and casually smoking a cigarette with the other. Meanwhile, Mrs Simpson looks effortlessly chic with her sunhat and fashionable handbag. The background showcases Salzburg's beautiful architecture as well as its picturesque countryside. This photo not only captures the essence of these two individuals but also provides us with insight into their surroundings during that era. As you admire this monochrome portrait captured by Gordon Beckles for Daily Express newspaper back in 1937, it is impossible to ignore the significance of King Edward VIII's decision to abdicate his throne for love. This image serves as a reminder that even those born into privilege can face difficult choices when it comes to matters of the heart.
