EDITORS COMMENTS
King George V and Queen Mary, the Beloved Monarchs of the British Empire, take a whimsical ride on a model railway at the iconic British Empire Exhibition in Wembley, London. Captured on 9 May 1925 and immortalized in this timeless photograph from 'The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures, ' their joyous spirits shine through. Dressed impeccably for the occasion, King George V dons his signature bowler hat while Queen Mary exudes elegance in her regal attire. As they embark on this miniature train adventure, their infectious laughter fills the air, reminding us that even monarchs can find delight in simple pleasures. This snapshot captures not only a moment of lightheartedness but also symbolizes an era defined by unity and pride within the vast British Empire. It serves as a testament to King George V's reign (1865-1936) and Queen Mary's unwavering support throughout their rule. As we gaze upon this black-and-white image today, it transports us back to a time when grand exhibitions showcased Britain's cultural prowess and global influence. The exhibition itself was a celebration of innovation, industry, and artistry that captivated visitors from around the world.
