EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a special moment in British history as the Duke and Duchess of York, later to become King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, are seen in an open carriage with their two young daughters, Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose, on their way to St. Paul's Cathedral for the Royal Silver Jubilee thanksgiving service on May 6, 1935. The occasion marked King George V and Queen Mary's 25 years on the British throne, a significant milestone in the monarchy's long and storied history. The Duke and Duchess, both dressed in formal attire, are seen gazing out at the cheering crowds lining the streets of London, a testament to the deep patriotism and love for the monarchy that permeated the era. The girls, dressed in matching hats and coats, sit quietly in the carriage, their expressions filled with a sense of wonder and excitement. The photograph, taken during the 1930s, is reminiscent of a bygone era, with its sepia tones and the grandeur of the royal procession. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of commemoration and thanksgiving, and the enduring power of tradition and family. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical images, and serves as a reminder of the special bond between the monarchy and the British people, as well as the importance of celebrating significant milestones in history.
