EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a historic moment in royal history: the wedding ceremony of Prince Albert, Duke of York, and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, which took place on the 26th of April, 1923, at the hallowed Westminster Abbey in London. The future King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, are seen exchanging vows at the altar, surrounded by the solemnity and grandeur of the Abbey. The Duke, later known as Bertie, is resplendent in his military uniform, while the radiant Bride, Elizabeth, is dressed in an elegant white gown and veil, held by her bridesmaids. Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Reverend Randall Davidson, officiates the ceremony, adding to the sacred atmosphere of the occasion. This photograph is a testament to the timeless beauty and tradition of royal weddings and marriages, and offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a bygone era.
