His Majesty The King
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photographic print from the early 1910s, capturing the regal presence of King George V and Queen Mary of Teck on the occasion of their coronation in 1911. The image, published in "The Book of the Coronation" by Cassell and Company, Ltd., London, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and tradition of the British monarchy during this era. King George V, dressed in his magnificent military uniform, is depicted wearing the insignia of the Order of the Garter, a blue sash adorned with golden braid and a star, and an aiguillette and epaulettes on his shoulders. His beard, neatly trimmed and white, frames his stern yet compassionate face. Queen Mary, in her elegant robes and crown, stands beside him, her expression serene and proud. The photograph showcases the intricate details of their apparel, from the gold thread and metallic threads used in the braid and epaulettes, to the medals and swords that adorn their uniforms. The image evokes a sense of tradition and history, as well as the military might and power of the monarchy. King George V, who reigned from 1910 until his death in 1936, was the eldest son of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. He was also the Prince of Wales before his accession to the throne. This photograph, taken during his reign, is a testament to the enduring symbolism of the monarchy and the fashion of the time. The photograph is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the lives of the British monarchs during a time of great change and upheaval. It is a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to shape the United Kingdom and the world today.
