EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the summer of 1966, where we find ourselves in the company of none other than The Duke of Windsor himself. With a regal air about him, he is captured in his opulent home, Le Moulin De La Tuileries near Paris, engrossed in watching the highly anticipated World Cup Final. The image exudes an unmistakable sense of relaxation as The Duke sits comfortably in an elegant armchair. His posture suggests both anticipation and excitement as he leans forward slightly, fully absorbed by the action unfolding on his television screen. It's clear that even royalty couldn't resist being captivated by the allure of football's greatest tournament. As one delves deeper into this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes apparent that this moment holds historical significance beyond mere entertainment. The date etched beneath the photograph - 30th July 1966 - marks a pivotal day for football enthusiasts worldwide: the final match between England and West Germany. This remarkable image not only captures a rare glimpse into The Duke's personal life but also serves as a testament to how sports can transcend social boundaries and unite people from all walks of life. Here we witness a member of royalty finding solace and joy within the realm of sport just like any ordinary fan.
