EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic moment captured at St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh on June 24, 1953, Queen Elizabeth II is seen accepting the Honours of Scotland, also known as the Scottish Crown Jewels. The Honours of Scotland, which include the Crown of Scotland, the Sceptre with the Cross, and the Sword of State, were presented to the Queen during the National Service of Thanksgiving and Dedication, marking her official recognition as the Monarch of Scotland. The Queen is depicted wearing the traditional Scottish robe and headdress, as she receives the regalia from the Duke of Hamilton, who bears the Honours on behalf of the Estates of Scotland. The Sword of State is placed in the Queen's right hand, while the Sceptre with the Cross is held in her left. After the ceremony, the Queen returns the Crown of Scotland to the Duke of Hamilton, signifying the end of the formal proceedings. The National Service of Thanksgiving and Dedication was an important event in the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, symbolizing the connection between the Monarch and the people of Scotland. This photograph captures the solemnity and grandeur of the occasion, with the intricate details of the regalia and the ornate interior of St Giles Cathedral adding to the sense of history and tradition. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Scotland and the enduring role of the Monarchy in its history.
