The International Exhibition: silver statuette of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, 1862. 'The statuette of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales [future King Edward VII], exhibited by Mr. Harry Emanuel, is a very spirited and artistic work, and has been produced in oxydised silver so as to give greater effect to the work of the artist.

The International Exhibition: silver statuette of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, 1862. 'The statuette of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales [future King Edward VII], exhibited by Mr. Harry Emanuel, is a very spirited and artistic work, and has been produced in oxydised silver so as to give greater effect to the work of the artist. The Prince is represented as Colonel of the 100th (Royal Canadian) Regiment, acknowledging a salute bareheaded, and with his hat in his hand. His charger is at the same time pawing the ground in a very spirited and free manner; indeed, there is much force and fire in the horse, whilst the pose of the Prince is graceful and his seat sound and may well congratulate the artist, Mr. Marshall Wood, on the success and beauty of his performance. The manufacturer has very wisely determined to reproduce this work in bronze, and, doubtless, many who are not prepared to purchase the figure in one of the precious metals will yet be rejoiced to possess a copy in a metal almost as beautiful, more fitted for artistic purposes, and even more enduring'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
