EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as King George V inspects the Officer Training Corps at Bangor University College in the 1920s. Dressed in his regal military uniform, the monarch stands tall, exuding authority and strength. The image showcases the close connection between education and warfare during this era. King George V, born in 1865 to Edward VII and Alexandra of Denmark, ascended to the throne in 1910 after his father's death. Throughout his reign, he made notable contributions to British politics and society. In 1924, he appointed Ramsay MacDonald as Britain's first Labour Prime Minister, demonstrating his commitment to progressive ideas. The photograph also highlights King George V's role as a unifying figure for the nation. In 1932, he introduced the tradition of broadcasting a Christmas message to reach out directly to the people. This act of communication showcased his desire for connection with his subjects during times of celebration. Tragically, King George V succumbed to influenza on January 20th, 1936. His eldest son Edward succeeded him on the throne. This remarkable image serves as a testament not only to King George V's dedication towards military training but also reflects an important period of transition within British society under his rule. It is a poignant reminder of both historical significance and royal legacy captured through monochrome elegance by an unknown creator.
