EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the breathtaking scene of the processional route for Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation Day in London on June 2, 1953. The image offers a unique bird's eye view of the bustling streets of the city, filled with an estimated crowd of 800,000 people, eagerly awaiting the sight of their monarch. The State Coach, carrying the newly crowned Queen Elizabeth II, makes its way through the historic streets of the British capital, surrounded by a sea of spectators. The route begins at Westminster Abbey, where the Queen was anointed and crowned, and continues along The Mall, a grand procession route that has been used for royal events since the 18th century. The photograph showcases the grandeur and pageantry of the Coronation Day procession, with the iconic Buckingham Palace and Trafalgar Square visible in the background. The intricate details of the streets, including the red double-decker buses, taxis, and horse-drawn carriages, add to the sense of history and tradition. The Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II was a momentous occasion in British history, marking the end of World War II and the beginning of a new era for the monarchy. This aerial photograph offers a unique perspective on this historic event, allowing us to appreciate the scale and spectacle of the day in a way that was not possible for those on the ground.
