EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to June 1977 during the prestigious Order of The Garter ceremony. The image captures an armed soldier of the Coldstream guards dutifully standing guard, while a crowd eagerly watches on behind him. Dressed in their iconic ceremonial attire, complete with bearskin hats and immaculate uniforms, these soldiers exude both strength and tradition. Their presence is a testament to the military's commitment to protecting and serving their country. The juxtaposition between the stoic soldier and the animated crowd creates a fascinating dynamic within the photograph. It is as if time stands still for this momentous occasion, where customs and traditions come alive before our eyes. Amidst all seriousness, there is also room for humor in this scene. Perhaps it is the contrast between the formalities of military protocol and the lightheartedness of those observing that brings about such amusement. This print not only captures a specific moment in history but also serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted customs can be passed down through generations. It evokes feelings of pride, respect, and admiration for those who dedicate themselves to preserving age-old traditions. Mirrorpix has once again provided us with an extraordinary glimpse into our past through this remarkable piece of artistry captured on film.
