EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the Coronation Procession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as she made her way down The Mall in London on the 2nd of June, 1953. The day marked the official crowning of Queen Elizabeth II, following her accession to the throne after the death of her father, King George VI. The image is a testament to the pomp and ceremonial grandeur of the occasion, with the Queen seated regally in her open state carriage, adorned in her magnificent coronation robes and regalia. The Mall, a wide tree-lined boulevard in central London, was the perfect setting for the procession, with its iconic backdrop of Buckingham Palace and the surrounding greenery. The crowd, estimated to be over 800,000 strong, is seen in this photograph, their faces filled with awe and excitement as they bear witness to this momentous event in British history. The Coronation Procession was a spectacle of majesty and tradition, with the Queen accompanied by her husband, Prince Philip, and other members of the Royal Family in various carriages and coaches. The scene is a vivid reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of the British monarchy, and the deep connection between the people and their monarch. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, is a precious document of this historic day and a reminder of the enduring allure of the British monarchy and its traditions.
