EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning aerial view by G.H. Davis, a special artist for the Illustrated London News (ILN), captures the intricate processional routes for the Coronation of King George VI in 1937. The black line marks the route from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey, where the coronation ceremony took place. The longer, winding white route leading from the Abbey back to Buckingham Palace follows Northumberland Avenue, Pall Mall, Piccadilly, Regent Street, Oxford Street, Park Lane, and Constitution Hill. The meticulously planned procession allowed the newly crowned monarch and his Queen, Elizabeth, to connect with their people, as hundreds of thousands lined the streets to catch a glimpse of their beloved royal family. This breathtaking image, a testament to the grandeur of the occasion, offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant events in British history.
