EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in June 1911, King George V and Queen Mary are seen receiving an address from the senior lawyers, or Benchers, of Gray's Inn, London. The royal couple sits in an open carriage, dressed in their formal attire, with the King wearing the insignia of the Order of the Garter and the Star of India, and Queen Mary wearing a magnificent hat adorned with feathers and pearls. The scene takes place in the courtyard of Gray's Inn, a prestigious legal institution in London, where the Benchers, wearing their traditional wigs and robes, gather to pay their respects to the monarch. The atmosphere is formal and traditional, with the sound of horse hooves echoing through the courtyard as the coachman leads the carriage forward. The crowd of spectators, dressed in their Sunday best, gather around the courtyard, some wearing hats and holding parasols to shield themselves from the sun. Judges and barristers, also in their robes and wigs, can be seen mingling in the background. This occasion marks an important moment in British history, as it represents the continuation of a long-standing tradition that dates back to medieval times. The monarch's annual visit to Gray's Inn is an opportunity for the legal profession to pay homage to the reigning monarch and reaffirm their loyalty to the crown. The photograph captures the grandeur and pageantry of a bygone era, with the formal attire, open carriage, and traditional customs on full display. It is a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to shape British society and the legal profession to this day.
