EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating photograph titled "And Still They Cheered, 1937" captures a moment of pure jubilation during the coronation of King George VI in London. Taken from the pages of the Coronation Souvenir Book 1937, edited by Gordon Beckles and published by the Daily Express, this historic image showcases the unwavering support and excitement of the British public. In front of Buckingham Palace's grand entrance gate, a sea of spectators fills every available space. Men, women, and children alike gather to witness this monumental royal event. The crowd is captured mid-cheer; their faces filled with joy and anticipation for what lies ahead. Amongst them stands Prince Albert Frederick Arthur George, Duke of York - soon to be crowned as King George VI. His presence exudes regality as he gazes out towards his loyal subjects. This portrait serves as a testament to his role in uniting not only Britain but also its vast empire during a time marked by uncertainty. The architectural beauty of Westminster City provides an awe-inspiring backdrop for this memorable occasion. As one looks at this print today, it offers us a glimpse into a significant moment in history that shaped both Britain and its people. Preserved through monochrome photography, "And Still They Cheered" immortalizes the spirit and pride felt throughout London on May 12th, 1937. It reminds us that even amidst challenging times, unity can be found within communities who come together to celebrate their shared heritage and embrace hope for a brighter future.
