EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, we witness the historic moment of the wedding ceremony between Prince George, Duke of York, and Princess May of Teck, which took place on the 6th of July, 1893, in the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace, London. The future King George V (1865-1936) and Queen Mary (1867-1953) are seen exchanging vows before a priest, surrounded by the grandeur of the Chapel and the solemn presence of the clergy. The newlyweds, dressed in their elegant wedding attire, stand hand in hand, their eyes locked in a tender gaze, as they pledge their love and commitment to each other. The crowd of spectators, gathered both inside and outside the Chapel, eagerly watch the proceedings, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. Princess May, later to be known as Queen Mary, is resplendent in a magnificent gown adorned with silver-white lace and pearls, while Prince George wears the uniform of the Royal Navy, reflecting his naval career. Queen Victoria, the reigning monarch, is also present, seated in the front row, her expression one of approval and pride. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of a Royal Wedding in Victorian Britain, as well as the deep-rooted traditions and pageantry that continue to define the British monarchy to this day. The image is a poignant reminder of the enduring power and allure of the British Crown, and the significance of the institution of marriage within the Royal Family.
