EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the sea of hats and umbrellas, faces filled with excitement and anticipation, one selfless husband stands out from the crowd. The date is June 22, 1902, and the historic event unfolding before them is the Coronation Procession of King Edward VII. The husband, Jones, had eagerly secured a prime spot for his family to witness this momentous occasion. However, as the procession approached, it became clear that his wife's view was obstructed by the throng of spectators. Without a moment's hesitation, Jones hoisted his petite wife onto his shoulders, much to the amusement of those around them. The crowd erupted in cheers and applause, appreciating the husband's selfless act. His wife's eyes widened with delight as she was granted an unobstructed view of the king's grand procession. Despite the jostling and commotion, Jones remained steadfast, his focus solely on ensuring his wife's enjoyment of the spectacle. The couple's laughter and joyous expressions added to the jovial atmosphere, a testament to the unity and camaraderie of the day. This photograph captures a moment of pure happiness and selflessness amidst the grandeur and excitement of the 1902 Coronation. A humorous reminder of the sacrifices made by spectators to fully immerse themselves in the experience and create cherished memories.
