EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the grand Royal Opening of the new Dry Dock at Southampton on Wednesday, July 26, 1933. King George V, accompanied by the Queen and the Duke and Duchess of York, are seen making their way to the quayside to inaugurate the worlds largest shipbuilding facility at that time. The Royal Yacht Victoria and Albert III, proudly bearing the British flag, breaks the ribbon tied across the entrance with its bows. The new dry dock, a marvel of engineering and construction in the 1930s, was a significant addition to the naval and transport infrastructure of Southampton, Hampshire. The royal party's arrival marked the official beginning of the graving dock's commercial use, making it a momentous occasion in the maritime history of the port city. The photograph offers a glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of the era, with the Royal Family and the advanced technology of the time coming together to celebrate progress and innovation.
