EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a special moment in British history, as the Duke and Duchess of Kent make their way to St. Paul's Cathedral in an open carriage for the Royal Silver Jubilee thanksgiving service on May 6, 1935. The occasion marked the 25th anniversary of the reign of King George V and Queen Mary, a significant milestone in the monarchy's long and storied history. The Duke, dressed in full military uniform, and the Duchess, wearing a elegant hat, sit proudly in the carriage, their expressions reflecting a sense of pride and patriotism as they join the celebrations in London. The scene is set against the backdrop of the bustling city, with crowds of people lining the streets to catch a glimpse of the royal procession. The Silver Jubilee was a time of great national pride and commemoration, as the British Empire celebrated the longevity and stability of its monarchy. The event was marked by various festivities and pageants, including this thanksgiving service at St. Paul's Cathedral. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, and a testament to the enduring power of tradition and the deep connection between the monarchy and the people of Britain. It is a fitting image to commemorate this historic occasion, and a valuable addition to any collection of British royalty or 1930s history.
