EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in British history - The Regalia, May 12th, 1937. Taken from the Coronation Souvenir Book of that year, edited by Gordon Beckles and published by the Daily Express in London, this image showcases the grandeur and elegance of a bygone era. In the picture, we see a distinguished group of individuals gathered inside Westminster Abbey. Among them is Albert Frederick Arthur George Saxe Coburg Gotha, also known as King George VI. He stands tall and regal alongside his beloved wife Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes Lyon, who would later become Queen Consort. The atmosphere is filled with reverence as clergymen surround the royal couple while they prepare for their coronation ceremony. The Dean of Westminster presides over this solemn occasion, symbolizing the deep-rooted connection between Christianity and monarchy. The photograph highlights not only the importance of this specific event but also provides us with an insight into British culture during the 1930s. It serves as a reminder of Britain's rich heritage and its enduring traditions. As we gaze upon this portrait frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where newspaper publications like the Daily Express played a crucial role in documenting historical moments for future generations to cherish. This print encapsulates both artistry and historical significance within its monochrome frame – truly a treasure worth preserving for all admirers of British history.
