Dignified vintage matte-finish 7.25 x 11 full-length portrait by D. Knights Whittome, of a 17-year-old Edward in his investiture robe, with sword and scepter in hand, affixed to its original 12.25 x 17.5 photographer’s mount, signed on the image in fountain pen, “Edward P. July 13th, 1911.” In very good condition, with silvering to edges, some scattered light toning and soiling to frame, as well as a couple of chips to top edge, and date of signature fairly light, but still mostly legible. The day he signed this photo, Edward was invested as the Prince of Wales at Caernarvon Castle in an elaborate royal ceremony. A handsome image of the young prince—one of the earliest portraits of Edward we have ever offered. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
