EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historic photograph captures the front cover of The Illustrated London News Silver Jubilee Celebrations Number, published on 11th May 1935. A stunning example of colour lithography by an anonymous English School artist from the 20th century, this print is a prized possession in a private collection. The image commemorates the momentous occasion of King George V's silver jubilee, marking his 25 years on the throne. His Majesty's reign (1865-1936) was celebrated throughout the British Empire with great pomp and grandeur. The front cover showcases a regal portrait of King George V himself, adorned in military attire as a symbol of his role as sovereign and commander-in-chief. Surrounding him are various elements that represent the vastness and diversity of the British Empire. Flags flutter proudly, including the Union Jack flag alongside those representing India and Sikh soldiers who served under British rule. This visual tribute highlights not only Britain's military might but also its multicultural heritage. Intricate details capture St Paul's Cathedral in all its glory, serving as a backdrop to this significant event. The entire composition exudes an air of majesty and reverence for both royalty and empire. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from history, it serves as a reminder of Britain's rich royal traditions, its global influence through colonialism, and above all else, celebrates an extraordinary milestone in King George V's reign.
