In this evocative black-and-white photograph from the Terence Gallacher Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, we witness a significant moment during the historic coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. The image captures the Queen Mothers mounted escort making their way down Victoria Street, as the crowd eagerly looks on. The Queen Mothers mounted escort was an essential part of the coronation procession, consisting of the monarch's mothers and grandmothers, riding in horse-drawn carriages or on horseback. In this photograph, we see several Queen Mothers, dressed in their formal attire and adorned with jewels and feathers, seated regally on their horses. Their escorts, dressed in red uniforms, lead the horses, ensuring the safety and comfort of the Queen Mothers. The excitement and anticipation in the crowd are palpable as they line the streets, eager to catch a glimpse of the royal procession. The women wear hats and dresses reminiscent of the 1950s fashion, while the men don suits and hats. The atmosphere is filled with joy, pride, and a sense of history being made. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Terence Gallacher, captures the essence of the coronation event, showcasing the grandeur and tradition of the British monarchy. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of this momentous occasion, which continues to be celebrated and remembered in the annals of British history. The photograph, titled "Queen Mothers mounted escort moving off down Victoria Street. 1953," is a beautiful and timeless piece that transports us back to a bygone era, allowing us to relive the magic and wonder of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
