EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print commemorates the historic Royal Wedding of 1947, featuring a decorative chart of the processional route taken by Princess Elizabeth and Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey. The sun in splendour graces the background, symbolizing the radiant happiness and promise of a new beginning for the young couple. The route begins at Buckingham Palace, the iconic London residence of the British monarchy, where the newlyweds embarked on their journey. The procession then proceeds down The Mall, a grand tree-lined avenue, leading to Admiralty Arch, an impressive archway that marks the entrance to The Mall from Trafalgar Square. Cupid, the mythological figure of love, stands proudly at the heart of the chart, directing the way with an arrow, symbolizing the romance and happiness that the union of the future Queen and Duke of Edinburgh would bring. The procession continues along Whitehall, a grand boulevard in the heart of London, before reaching the hallowed grounds of Westminster Abbey, the historic site of countless royal weddings and coronations. This chart offers a captivating glimpse into the grandeur and spectacle of one of the most memorable events in British history. The Royal Wedding of 1947 marked the beginning of a new era for the monarchy and the country, and this decorative print serves as a beautiful reminder of that momentous occasion.
