EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postcard captures the moment of homage during the coronation of King George VI at Westminster Abbey in London, on May 12, 1937. The image presents a fitting conclusion to the solemn and spiritual coronation ceremony, which marked the official installation of King George VI as the monarch of the United Kingdom and the Dominions of the British Commonwealth. King George VI, the sixth monarch of that name, is shown in regal majesty, seated on his throne as he receives the homage of his princes and peers. The princes, dressed in their formal attire, bow before their king, pledging their loyalty and allegiance. The peers, clad in their traditional robes and headdresses, follow suit, adding their voices to the collective expression of fealty. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Cosmo Lang, stands to the right of the king, holding the sacred crown aloft. The moment of homage represents the publicly acknowledged transfer of power from the Church to the monarch, symbolizing the unity of the spiritual and temporal realms. The coronation, steeped in tradition and pomp, was a grand spectacle that brought together the monarchy, the clergy, and the people of the United Kingdom in a display of unity and continuity. This postcard offers a glimpse into the rich history and enduring traditions of the British monarchy, providing a visual reminder of the significance and majesty of the coronation ceremony.
