EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "His Majesty at His Boys Camp at Southwold, 1937". The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but its impact is undeniable. In the frame stands King George VI, formerly known as the Duke of York, who ascended to the throne on December 11th, 1936. This photograph was featured in Major J. T. Gorman's book titled "George VI, King and Emperor", published by W. & G. Foyle Ltd. , London in 1937. The scene depicts a jubilant crowd surrounding their beloved monarch during his visit to the boys' camp at Southwold. The atmosphere is electric as young boys cheer with unbridled enthusiasm for their king. Amidst the sea of faces are also glimpses of girls and women present on this momentous occasion. Among them is Lady Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, later known as Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother), wife of King George VI. The composition exudes a sense of unity and excitement that transcends time. It serves as a powerful reminder of an era when loyalty to one's monarch ran deep within British society. Preserved through monochrome tones and captured outdoors against an unidentified backdrop, this photograph encapsulates both historical significance and artistic beauty. It invites us to reflect upon the legacy left behind by His Majesty King George VI while celebrating the spirit of camaraderie found within his boys' camp at Southwold in 1937.
