EDITORS COMMENTS
This page from the Illustrated London News Special Coronation Number showcases a young and vibrant Princess Elizabeth II during her teenage years. The photographs, taken in the 1930s, offer a rare glimpse into the life of the future monarch before she ascended to the throne. In one image, a young Elizabeth can be seen tending to her garden with great concentration, her hands covered in soil, and a look of determination on her face. This early exposure to the outdoors and the joys of gardening would later become a lifelong passion for the Queen. Another photograph captures Elizabeth in her role as a Sea Ranger, a youth organization that focused on promoting nautical skills and knowledge. The Princess is seen in her uniform, looking confident and engaged as she takes part in a boating activity. A third photograph shows a more formal side of the young Princess, as she registers at the Windsor Labour Exchange on her sixteenth birthday. Dressed in a simple yet elegant dress, Elizabeth is seen signing her name in a registry book, marking her transition into adulthood. The final image on this page shows a young Elizabeth making her first broadcast at the age of fourteen, addressing the British children evacuated to Canada and America during World War II. With a poised and serious expression, she speaks into the microphone, offering words of comfort and encouragement to those far from home. These photographs offer a unique and endearing look into the life of Queen Elizabeth II during her teenage years, showcasing her diverse interests, dedication, and early leadership skills.
