Head Shots (Royal Version)

Waiting in North Philadelphia for His Royal Highness The Prince Edward Antony Richard Louis, Earl of Wessex, Viscount Severn, Royal Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, Aide-de-Camp to Her Majesty.

Waiting in North Philadelphia for Prince Edward (offically, His Royal Highness The Prince Edward Antony Richard Louis, Earl of Wessex, Viscount Severn, Royal Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, Aide-de-Camp to Her Majesty... and seventh in the line of succession to the British Throne) to arrive for luncheon and ceremonial tree planting at Girard College, during his two-day visit to Philadelphia last week.

So call this one a royal-in-waiting version, in the series "spanning the tri-state region to bring you the constant variety of headshots..."

The sculpure, The Spirit of Girard, by Bruno Lucchesi, is outside Founders Hall at the boarding school. It was dedicated in 2000 on the 250th anniversary of the birth of founder Stephen Girard. Click here for more pictures of the Prince's visit
