EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment as Prime Minister Malan of South Africa arrives at the West Door of Westminster Abbey for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. The Prime Minister, Terence Manning Malan, is seen stepping out of his ornate coach, flanked by South African Mounted Police in their distinctive red coats and white helmets. The crowd, a sea of hats and umbrellas, eagerly awaits the arrival of the dignitary, adding to the sense of excitement and anticipation in the air. The coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, held on June 2nd, 1953, was a grand and elaborate affair, marking the official installation of the young monarch following the death of her father, King George VI. The event brought together royalty and dignitaries from all corners of the British Commonwealth, including South Africa, which was then governed by Prime Minister Malan. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Terence Gallacher, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and pageantry of the coronation, as well as the political dynamics of the time. The image is a testament to the historical significance of the event and the important role South Africa played in the British Empire during the 1950s.
