EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the Grand Arch Druid of England, William McAuliffe, plants a Coronation Oak sapling at the Crystal Palace in London, in commemoration of the coronation of King George V in 1911. The ceremony was a unique blend of ancient tradition and modern royalty, attended by numerous foreign delegates. McAuliffe, dressed in full Druidic costume, wields a ceremonial staff adorned with a medallion and a crook, as he plants the sapling with a spade. The misty background adds an air of mystery and intrigue to the occasion. McAuliffe's hooded robe, adorned with white tassels and a sash, is a striking contrast to the modern Crystal Palace in the background. The Coronation Oak was a special tree, symbolizing the continuity of the monarchy and the connection between ancient and modern traditions. The planting ceremony was a significant event, reflecting the enduring appeal of Druidic practices and the rich cultural heritage of England. The photograph captures the moment of planting, with McAuliffe's determined expression and the misty surroundings, creating a sense of solemnity and reverence. The image is a testament to the power of tradition and the enduring allure of the past. This photograph, taken from the Pete Frost Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of ancient and modern practices, and the enduring appeal of tradition.
