King George VI pays tribute at the Cenotaph on Armistice Day, 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photograph, we witness a significant moment in history as King George VI, then known as the Duke of York, attends the Armistice Day ceremony at the iconic Cenotaph in Whitehall. The date is November 11th, 1936. As a symbol of remembrance for those who sacrificed their lives during World War I, the Cenotaph stands tall against London's architectural backdrop. Surrounding it is a solemn crowd gathered to honor and commemorate fallen heroes. Dressed in his military uniform with great dignity and respect, King George VI joins his subjects in paying homage to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. His presence exudes both strength and humility as he lays wreaths alongside other dignitaries. This powerful image captures not only a historic event but also reflects upon an era marked by resilience and unity amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that war had on nations worldwide. Preserved within Major J. T. Gorman's book "George VI, King and Emperor" this print transports us back to that fateful day when Prince Albert assumed his role as king just weeks after attending this solemn ceremony. It immortalizes an important chapter in British history while honoring those who fought valiantly for freedom and peace.
