EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'The Archbishop of Canterbury Crowning The King', depicts a significant moment in British history: the coronation of King Edward VII in Westminster Abbey, London, on 9 August 1902. The monarch, Edward VII, is shown being crowned by Archbishop Frederick Temple, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in a grand and ornate setting. Edward, dressed in his regal robes and adorned with the Imperial State Crown, sits on a raised throne, while Temple holds the crown aloft, ready to place it on the king's head. The Prince of Wales, later King George V, stands nearby, holding the sceptres. The atmosphere is solemn yet celebratory, as the transfer of power takes place in front of a sea of robed clergy and dignitaries. This image is taken from 'Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX', published by Cassell and Company, Limited, in the early 1900s. The photograph is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy and the role of the Church in the coronation ceremony.
