EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Trafalgar Square in London on the historic occasion of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II on June 6, 1953. The image, taken by Terence Gallacher, offers a view looking towards Cockspur Street, with the iconic National Gallery building visible in the background. The square is bustling with activity, as crowds gather to celebrate the momentous event. The most striking feature of the scene is the temporary grandstand that has been erected on the right-hand side of the square. Thousands of people are gathered in the grandstand, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Queen and other members of the royal family. The grandstand extends from the base of the column of Lord Nelson, a fitting backdrop for the celebration of the monarch who would go on to lead the United Kingdom through significant historical changes. The atmosphere is one of excitement and anticipation, as the British people come together to mark the beginning of a new era. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the sense of unity and national pride that characterized the coronation, and serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era. The image offers a unique glimpse into history, providing a tangible connection to the events of that day and the collective memory of the British people.
