EDITORS COMMENTS
1947: A Historic Moment in British Monarchy This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment during the coronation of King George VI at Westminster Abbey in London, on May 12, 1937. The image shows Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II) and her younger sister, Princess Margaret Rose, followed by their grandmother, Queen Mary, as they leave the abbey after the ceremony. The future monarch, dressed in a simple yet elegant dress made of fine fabric, is seen wearing the traditional ermine-trimmed robe and the crimson velvet mantle of the Order of the Garter. Her sister, Princess Margaret, wears a similar outfit, both girls looking resplendent in their royal finery. In the background, King George VI, wearing the Imperial State Crown, is seen walking with his eldest son, the Duke of York (later King George VI), and his father, Albert, Prince of Wales (later Duke of Windsor). The Duke of York wears the robes and crown of the Order of the Thistle, while his father dons the robes of the Order of the Garter. The photograph is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy, with the young princesses taking their first steps towards their future roles as queens. The intricate details of their clothing, from the ermine trim to the velvet mantles, highlight the importance of fashion and apparel in royal ceremonies. This image, taken from "Princess Elizabeth: The Illustrated Story of Twenty-one Years in the Life of the Heir Presumptive" by Dermot Morrah, is a significant record of a historic event in the 20th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of the British royal family during the 1930s and 1940s.
