Alexandra Celebration Composed Coronation Ezra Oval Read Sheet 1902
EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant and intricately designed music cover, titled "Coronation Grand March," dates back to the early 1900s, specifically the year 1902. Composed by the renowned English musician Ezra Read, this grand march was likely performed to celebrate the coronation of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. The regal atmosphere of the occasion is beautifully captured in this exquisite print. The cover features an oval portrait of King Edward VII, dressed in his royal robes and adorned with the Imperial State Crown, and an equally stunning portrait of Queen Alexandra, wearing a magnificent diadem and veil. Their portraits are framed by an ornate gold border, adorned with intricate floral motifs and the insignia of the British monarchy. The title of the composition, "Coronation Grand March," is inscribed in elegant script at the top of the cover, adding to its grandeur. The Edwardian era, during which this music cover was created, was a time of celebration and opulence in British history. King Edward VII's coronation marked the end of the Victorian era and the beginning of a new, more relaxed and indulgent era. This music cover, with its stunning portraits of the monarchs and its grand design, is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the Edwardian period and the significance of the coronation of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. This music cover is not only a historical artifact but also a work of art in its own right, showcasing the intricate detail and craftsmanship of the time. It is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy and the grand celebrations that marked the coronation of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra.
