22nd June 1911: The Crowned King and Queen's Triumphant Return from Westminster After the Historic Coronation Ceremony This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in British history as King George V and Queen Mary make their regal procession through the streets of London following their coronation at Westminster Abbey on 22nd June 1911. The newly-crowned monarch and his consort, resplendent in their golden state coach, are greeted by the adoring crowds that have gathered to witness their return. The iconic image showcases the grandeur and majesty of the British monarchy, with the King and Queen waving to their subjects from the ornate carriage, as they pass under the impressive arch of the Admiralty building. The architectural splendor of the surrounding structures, including the imposing facades of various government buildings, adds to the sense of occasion and solemnity. The coronation of King George V marked the beginning of a new era for the British monarchy, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the deep connection between the royal family and their people. The joyous expressions on the faces of the onlookers, who have braved the elements to catch a glimpse of their monarchs, underscore the enduring power of tradition and the unwavering loyalty of the British people to their reigning sovereign. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the monarchy held a special place in the hearts and minds of the British people.
